My shop’s default currency is CAD. Our shop has the ability to change the currency displayed based on the customer’s locale, so we often get orders in USD. How do I print the exchange rate? Or the CAD equivalent charge? I can see the exchange rate used in the timeline: Balance transaction{“id”=>“txn_3LVIGR2…”, “object”=>“balance_transaction”, “exchange_rate”=>1.28787}
I can also see this: Paid by customer
$173.86 CAD (1 CAD = 0.776476 USD)
$135.00 USD
How can I print the exchange rate on the order AND/OR convert it to my shop’s default currency (CAD). I have spent way too much time researching this trying to find a solution.
Hello, I got a solution but I haven’t tried it yet. Here is what they said to me:
"Graham here from Shopify support. Thanks for getting in touch, I’ll be helping you out with your question about showing the currency amounts in your local currency of CAD on orders within the Order Printer app.
Our team will be able to take a look at making a change to your order printer templates to show the currency in your shop’s currency instead of the customer’s currency. To do this I’ll ask you to please create a new request on a pre-authenticated ticket so that we know what have the appropriate permissions to make these changes. To create an authenticated ticket, please follow the steps below:
Go to the login page of the Shopify help centre.
Click the login button, as highlighted in the screenshot below: Help Centre login page, with the login button highlighted
Select your account and the store you would like to discuss.
Proceed with reaching out to support as normal. The changes, if possible will use at least 15 minutes of your included 60 minutes of design time which is used for making changes like this to your store."
This is why I haven’t done it yet:
“…we will need the permission from the Account Owner on file, to make this change. I understand that you’ve reached back out to us here, to get this verification needed, but I will need the account owner on file to reach out directly”
