How to Edit Currencies in Edit Orders?

Hi

I've been searching for entire forum but could't find the answer so please help me on this:

I want to be able to edit the currency when I edit an new order.
Sometimes one client buys products in Euros but it's cowntry is Brazil so it would by nice if I could change the currency to "Brazilian Reais" in the Edit Orders to see the invoice in "Brazilian Reais" currency.

Is this possible?

Thanks in advance for your help

That's not a built-in feature to Zen Cart. Once an order is placed, it is set.

Furthermore, changing the details of what the customer paid is not a wise practice. If the customer paid in Euros, then you shouldn't change their order to say they paid in Reais, because that's not true.

Re: How to Edit Currencies in Edit Orders?

Hi
Thanks for your help.
In my website my clients can pay in Euros or in Reais. But sometimes some clients (by mistake) select euros instead of Reais and they want to pay by bank transference. So they ask us to change the order's total to Reais.
So, it would be easier if we could just edit the order's currency instead of making the calculations by hand.
One think that could help is if we could see both currencies total value in the orders menu.
Is this possible?

Anything's possible with custom code. However, what you're asking for isn't a built-in feature, so you'll need to customize the code to suit your own unique needs.
