Handling Different Customers with Different Currencies

Hi there,
I have a question regarding currencies. I have a UK based customer, but they are part of a US group and as such need to see the product prices in US$ - added to this their prices are fixed and not based on an exchange rate. My default currency is GB Pound.

Is there a way of showing this customer their prices in US$? I have already downloaded the Group Pricing (Per Item) Mod (which is great!) I just now need to display this customers pricing in US$.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
Scott

Re: Handling Different Customers with Different Currencies

Hi Kobra,
Thanks for your reply. I have done what you suggested but all it is doing is showing the list price in dollars. (I do not use Exchange rates).

This customer has their own specific pricing which I use the Group Pricing (Per Item)mod to handle, but it must be shown in dollars.

If you know a way to achieve this then that would be great!

Many thanks
Scott

Is that not what you asked for??

Hi Kobra,
Almost - there was a bit after that quoted sentence: "- added to this their prices are fixed and not based on an exchange rate" - This particular customer has their own unique pricing, so unfortunately I cannot just switch the currency.

Thanks again for your help.

You might work on constructing you questions to be concise, complete and on target,
If you require unique prices that are not a % of or some definable factor then that was something that should have been part of your question
