Japanese Yen and Paypal - JPY error 10401

[DrByte]

And just to confirm ... you're *only* testing this with PayPal, right? Which modules?

[CrystalKoi]

Yes Just PayPal, express checkout and normal paypal checkout. Next I will go to websites payment pro. I am also sure this applies to any other currency that works like this.

-PayPal Website Payments Pro
-PayPal Express Checkout

Hi DrByte, (I always feel you should be an evil character in MegaMan or something with that name...:-) )

Know you are busy, but did you come up with any solution for this problem or should we just come up with a fix?

Let me know, no push on you, just thought your fix might be better than mine since you know ZC a bit better than me.

Thanks,
Shaun

To properly allow the PayPal module to handle JPY without submitting a decimal point and fractions, I recommend this replacement for the calc_order_amount() function in /includes/modules/payment/paypalwpp.php:

  /**
   * Calculate the amount based on acceptable currencies
   */
  function calc_order_amount($amount, $paypalCurrency, $applyFormatting = false) {
    global $currencies;
    $amount = ($amount) * $currencies->get_value($paypalCurrency);
    if ($paypalCurrency == 'JPY') {
      $amount = (int)$amount;
      $applyFormatting = FALSE;
    }
    return ($applyFormatting ? number_format($amount, $currencies->get_decimal_places($paypalCurrency)) : $amount);
  }

Hi Dr. Byte,

That works.

Thanks,
