[5.x]: Currency Formatting on …DiscountAsCurrency

[sandrodunkel]

What happened?

Description

I am using Craft/Craft Commerce headless. All Commerce pricing values that feature the currency format the currency and value the same. e.g. storedTotalPriceAsCurrency returns "CHF 100.00" – so currency, space, value. An issue arises with negative values, probably most commonly used in the discount values, e.g. storedTotalDiscountAsCurrency, which returns CHF-100.00, so currency, NO space, value.

Steps to reproduce

1. Use Commerce in a headless project (don't know if regular usage also has this problem)
2. Use a negative pricing value in any …AsCurrency property (e.g. storedTotalDiscountAsCurrency)

Expected behavior

Negative values are returned the same as positive values, meaning currency – space – value.
Example positive value: CHF 100.00
Example negative value: CHF -100.00

Actual behavior

Negative values are formatted differently than positive values.
Example positive value: CHF 100.00 (with space, correct way)
Example negative value: CHF-100.00 (no space, wrong way)

Hi @sandrodunkel

Thank you for your message. Just looking into this, what formatting locale is running when you are seeing this issue?

I tried a few different ones and the results I saw were -CHF 123.45, -123,45 CHF and -123.45 CHF.

Thanks!

Hey @nfourtythree – I'm using de-CH (German in Switzerland). The correct way here it would be CHF -123.45. This change should affect all in Craft available locales from Switzerland (de-CH, fr-CH, it-CH, en-CH).
