As most of you know, there is the option to express currency data with these 2 filters:
- currency: expressing the number as you’d expect it to be (eg. 1.500,23 or -1.500,23)
- currency_dc: expressing a value depending on the chosen format in Advanced on firm level (eg. (1.500,23) or -1.500,23 depending on the chosen option)
As you might’ve noticed, the chosen setting here in the Advanced page on firm level:
is actually only reflected in all templates that use the currency_dc filter.
However, for templates that use the currency filter, that actually caused for inconsistencies across templates with the currency filter, and the report templates: the chosen setting would actually be seen in report templates, but not for templates that make use of the currency filter.
So, a zero amount might’ve shown - in a report, while (liquid) templates would still show 0. This isn’t very consistent, hence the change now we are going to implement: soon the currency filter will also reflect the chosen setting in Liquid templates.
To be clear:
- the change won’t alter any behaviour when using the
currency_dcfilter - the change only affects templates that use the
currencyfilter AND where a different format is chosen for zero and negative in the Advanced page on firm level
