Multi-currency support in Shopping Hub

Shoppers can view and select their local currency during shopping in Shopping Hub, providing a seamless multi-currency experience.

Key benefits

The multi-currency functionality provides the following benefits:

• Enables shoppers to view prices in their familiar local currency, helping them make more informed purchasing decisions.
• Enables shoppers operating across multiple geographies to toggle between currencies, providing better context for purchase decisions.
• Enables approvers to view product prices in their local currency alongside the original supplier currency across email notifications and To-dos.

How to configure

Role required: sn_shop.procurement_administrator

Plugin required: Shopping Hub (sn_spend_uib)

Ensure that you complete the following configurations for the multi-currency functionality to work correctly in Shopping Hub.

• Set the sn_spend_uib.local_currency.enable.menuoption system property to enable shoppers to view product prices in local currency in Shopping Hub. For more information, see Components installed with Sourcing and Procurement Operations.
  Note:

  Property is set to True by default. If you do not want prices to be displayed in the local currency, set this property to False.

• Ensure that each sys_user record is associated with an organization.

  

  This allows the organization’s local currency to become the user’s default currency upon login.

  

  Note:

  This is the Legal Entity record. On this record, you can view the local currency associated with the legal entity.

• To display a currency in the View prices in drop-down list on the Shopping Hub home page, a corresponding Currency record must exist in the fx_rate table and be active.

  

How it works

The following points describe how the multi-currency feature works:

• Shoppers can select the currency they want to view during shopping.

  When a shopper selects a currency, the following banner message appears.

  

• For delegated shopping, the default currency is derived from the delegator’s legal entity.
• Estimated prices are displayed consistently across supplier cards, product details, cart, checkout, and purchase tracking pages.

  

• As an approver, you can view the product price in your local currency alongside the original supplier currency. This information appears in email notifications and To-dos in Employee Center and Shopping Hub.
• The product price is also displayed in both your local currency and the original supplier currency on the product bundle page.
