Currency Calculation

[vkd1980 0]

Dear All,

 

I am developing an online book shop. In their book store, Books imported from Other Countries and priced in other currencies.At the time of selling they are calculating the Price in Local currency by prevailing Exchange Rate.

 

How can I implement the same in OSC ? . I have successfully done it in Ms Access. But I didn't know how to do it in OSC

 

Logic I intended to use is

 

in Products Table I Inserted one field Currency ID.

 

In OSC I need

 

In Admin side

 

Selection of currency while updating Products

 

In Front End

 

what ever the currency Updated in Products Table ,I need to Show the Price in Default Currency, by taking the exchange rate updated in currecny table of respective Currency.

 

for Example

1. If £10 is Currency updated in Products Table In front End it should show as Rs 850/-( 10*85(Current Exchange Rate)
   
2. if Rs 10 is Currency updated in Products Table In front End it should show as Rs10/-( 10*1(No Exchange Rate as default currency)
   
3. if $10 Currency updated in Products Table In front End it should show as Rs550/-( 10*55(Current Exchange Rate)
   

 

 

Please help me

Burt, Thank you for your reply,

 

If we work on local currency manually while updating the Benefit of Exchange rate fluctuation will not get.

 

In India there is a system for fixing the Exchange Rate of imported Books and periodicals. It done by goods office Committee and it will change only once in a month.

 

but the store I am developing have more than 1000 Products of Imported Books. Its not an easy task to Update price of these products every month manually. that's why I looked the possibilities of Automating

.

I think that I need to Modify this "$currencies->display_price" function

Please advice
