Simon,

You will need to use the ?currency(String IsoCode) string expansion modifier in the set element:

<set field="shippingDesc" value="${carrierShipmentMethod.partyId} ${carrierShipmentMethod.description} - ${shippingEst?currency(String IsoCode)}"/>

Search the existing XML files for "?currency(" and you will see how it is used.

Once you have the problem corrected, supply a patch to Jira and we will see to it that it is included in the project.

Hi,

In check-out process for eCommerce the descriptions of the shipment options 
include a price, however this always displayed as $ despite the uom for the 
shipment estimate being set to GBP.

I have looked at getShipOptions in CustomerEvents.xml and it appears that the 
currency symbol is hard-coded at the moment - notice the extra $ before 
$${shippingEst}

<set field="shippingDesc" value="${carrierShipmentMethod.partyId} 
${carrierShipmentMethod.description} - $${shippingEst}"/>

I am happy to fix this but was hoping that someone could please point me in the 
right direction for getting the correct currency symbol.

I have seen the @ofbizCurrency tag used in freemarker templats however I would 
need something equivalent from Minilang to solve here as the result of 
getShipOptions is simply returned as json to a javascript function in 
checkoutProcess.js

Note: The getShipOptions simple method uses this
<call-object-method obj-field="shoppingCart" method-name="getCurrency" 
ret-field="currency"/>

which returns the ISO value, in my case GBP - Can I call something to get the £ symbol for this ISO code perhaps?

Regards

Simon
