Microsoft Dynamics NAV

Currencies

A Sana webshop supports multiple currencies. This means that when a customer logs in to the Sana webshop, he or she will see prices in his or her local currency.

All currencies are managed in Microsoft Dynamics NAV. Use the Currencies table to see the available currencies and to create new.

 NOTE

Currency codes must comply with the ISO currency codes that are internationally recognized in order to work with Sana.

All currencies that are required for the Sana webshop, must be set to Visible in Webshop.

If you create any custom currency (nonstandard), it should be mapped to the ISO Currency Code. This is the standard code of the currency as defined by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). If a custom currency is created and set up for a customer, Sana will use the one that is mapped in the ISO Currency Code field to comply with ISO standards.

Use the Currency ISO Codes table to map the custom currency to the ISO Currency Code that is internationally recognized. To open the Currency ISO Codes table in Microsoft Dynamics NAV click: Departments > Webshop > Administration > Setup > Related Information > Setup > Currency ISO Codes.

The default currency and all currencies that are set to Visible in Webshop are indexed. If a currency is specified for a customer and it is set to Visible in Webshop, a customer will see prices in the currency set on the Customer Card.

To set up the default currency in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, use the General Ledger Setup form. The default currency can be set on the General FastTab, in the LCY Code field.

The currency of a customer can be set on the Customer Card, on the Foreign Trade FastTab.

The currency for a contact is retrieved from the related customer.

Sales agents do not have their own currency. The currency of a sales agent is determined by a represented customer.

If a currency is not set for a customer, the prices will be shown in the default currency.

When currencies and their exchange rates are configured in Microsoft Dynamics NAV, log in to Sana Admin and click: Tools > Scheduled tasks. Start the General information import task to import the default currency and all currencies that are set to Visible in Webshop from Microsoft Dynamics NAV to Sana.
