| Description |
|
This determines which currency symbol displays, NOT the number of decimal places that display, not the decimal character, or whether you use commas or periods for thousands separators (that’s covered by Locale, which sets the number format). This is also the currency used for roll-up reports so transactions in other currencies are converted to this one. Currency financials display in (funds etc). That’s out of scope for the feature that adds the setting, but might be worth noting for context. See attached zipped folder Currency Mockups.zip for Kimie Kester's latest mock-ups. |

SOME RESEARCH COMPLETED EARLIER BY HOLLY: Examples: $12.34, €12,34, £12.34, ¥1234, The value before the decimal point/comma is called the major currency unit and the value after the minor currency unit (aka sub-unit). There is an ISO standard that defines the relationship between the major currency unit and any minor currency unit. Often, the minor currency unit has a value that is 1/100 of the major unit, but 1/1000 is also common. Some currencies do not have any minor currency unit at all. In others, the major currency unit has so little value that the minor unit is no longer generally used (e.g. the Japanese sen, 1/100th of a yen). This is indicated in the standard by the currency exponent. For example, USD has exponent 2, while JPY has exponent 0. Mauritania does not use a decimal division of units, setting 1 ouguiya (UM) = 5 khoums, and Madagascar has 1 ariary = 5 iraimbilanja. Wikipedia provides a "List of circulating currencies by state and/or territory" at |

Holly Mistlebauer, I see you marked this In Progress. Is this in development already? Remember, the use of status in UXPROD has changed. In Progress now means in Development and we use Draft for "PO Analysis In Progress". See https://folio-org.atlassian.net/wiki/display/COMMUNITY/Getting+Started+for+Product+Owners#GettingStartedforProductOwners-UXPRODEpicandFeatureWorkflow/Status for details on how status is used. |

Holly Mistlebauer can you please attach your mockups for this? |

Cate, why did you change the Summary for this issue 3 days ago? This was originally for fees/fines only but back in July we made this the FOLIO-wide issue for setting currency for an institution and changed the Summary to "Ability to set default currency for a tenant." Three days ago you changed the Summary back to the old one: "Allow entry and display of fees/fines currency in appropriate locale setting." I already made a separate feature for fees/fines (

I am attaching my Example 1 and Example 2 mock-ups. Example 1 is a setting that is for display only, whereas Example 2 is a setting for when you need to know the currency in use for conversion purposes. I selected Example 2, because I am assuming in Acquisitions we will need to do currency conversion. |

Per Jakub Skoczen, this development could be done by UNAM. He'd just like to see an architecture write-up before they get started. Assigning to UNAM as dev team after discussion with Holly. |

Jakub Skoczen and Cate Boerema: I have documented several options for handling currency setting in the attached document titled Currency and Number Localization.docx. I have a feeling I am over thinking this, so I want your input. I have also attached a mock-up developed by Kimie--it is named number-currency-formatting.png. I am happy to meet with you if that will be easier. Cate is out for a week, but what I need help with is more in Jakub's are. Thanks much! |

Holly met with Jakub and Cate on May 2. She presented the mock-ups in attached file CurrencySettingsPresentation2CateandJakub.pdf. Decisions made are documented in the last page of the attachment. Holly passed the updates to Kimie, which resulted in the updated mock-ups in the attached zipped folder Currency Mockups.zip. Today Holly asked Kimie for one more change, as reported in JIRA issue

Holly Mistlebauer Dennis Bridges Could we have a meeting about currencies some time early next week? It would be great to look at the screens and talk through it all together. Hopefully we can find an ISO currency code library that will make it so that the currency symbol and decimal places are automatically determined. That way we don't have to build any of that - just refer to it, |
