Answer / sandeep8000861

This required identifying the location of the logged in user first which needs to be derived from account.personalInfo.userName key unless the location data is readily/explicitly available on the DWH table.


Once we have this info, conditionally rendering the format (just format?? not the amount too??) using a string conditional variable or any other approach.

Answer / mohanakrishnak

The Best Way is to create a table based on Current day conversion values and use this table for calculation with the "Sale Amount".

This table contains locale as one columns and conversion amount as another columns.

Locale Rate
------ ----
Usa 64
Uk 85
Rupee 1
China 3 ...etc

Use the account.Userlocale session parameter to get the user locale and multiply with 'Rate' column amount.
