Foreign Currency on Receipt

What do I need to add to the receipt template to print the transaction total in a different currency?

For example, my default currency is US and in the Footer I want to enter the price in Euro and Pounds.

Thanks,

Jason

If you just want to show the transaction subtotal, you can use the tag to convert the subtotal to an alternate currency. I don't think you would want to do this at the line item level as it seems like it would just be confusing...

This goes near the top of the xml file with the rest of SET Statements "EUR" in this example is the Currency CODE for the Euro. "EUR"

This goes where ever you wnat it to be displayed...

Transaction.SubTotal

Is it safe to say that if I want to display the total with tax I would use Transaction.Total ???

Also, lets say I want to print the following after the total in local currency:

EURO: $x,xxx.xx US DOLLARS: $x,xxx.xx

How do I get the text to appear on the line also and have it lined up nicely in columns?

Thanks for the help (as always!)

This example assumes that the Tender Code for Euro us "EUR" and fo rUS Dollars is "USD"

This goes near the top of the receipt template:

"EUR" "USD"

This goes near the end of the template, in the PrintTransactionTotals SUB procedure. The first and last lines are already in the default receipt template:

"Total|" Transaction.Total

"EURO:|" Transaction.Total

"US DOLLARS|" Transaction.Total
