Follow these steps to add a new currency to a specific store.
1. Select the correct store
Log in to Perno and use the Context selector at the top of the page to choose the store you want to configure.
Currency settings apply only to the currently selected storefront.
2. Open the currency settings
In the left-hand navigation:
-
Expand Your store.
-
Select Store currencies.
The page displays the currencies currently configured for the store, including:
-
Currency name and code
-
Default currency status
-
Conversion rule
-
Available actions
3. Start adding a currency
Select Add store currency in the upper-right corner.
4. Select the currency
Open the Currency dropdown and select the currency you want to add.
The selected currency will be used as an additional storefront currency.
5. Decide whether it should be the default currency
Select the Default checkbox only if the new currency should become the store’s main or base currency.
The default currency controls the base prices used by the storefront. Review this option carefully, as the store should normally have only one default currency.
6. Configure the conversion rule
If you are adding a non-default currency, define how prices should be converted from the current base currency.
Complete:
-
Exchange Operator – select the mathematical operation used for the conversion, such as multiplication or division.
-
Exchange Value – enter the value used in the calculation.
For example, if PLN is the base currency and prices in EUR should be four times lower:
-
Select / as the exchange operator.
-
Enter 4 as the exchange value.
A price of PLN 100 would then be displayed as EUR 25.
Do not configure a conversion rule when adding the default currency unless required by your store setup.
7. Save the currency
Check the store shown in the Context Summary, then select Save.
To leave without adding the currency, select Cancel or Back to List.
8. Verify the configuration
Return to the Store currencies list and confirm that the new currency appears with the correct:
-
Currency name
-
Currency code
-
Default status
-
Conversion rule
Preview the store to make sure prices are displayed and converted correctly.
