If a user has set a different currency than the standard base currency they might see a different value when looking at maintenance costs in the list all licenses and the overview as opposed to in edit mode.
This is especially true if they have updated the currency conversion for the currency on the license after the set purchase date. In this case two different numbers will show depending on if you are looking at the license in editing mode or not:
- In editing mode the number shown will be the cost calculated on the conversion rate at the purchase date.
- Whereas when viewing the license (in both the list all licenses and the overview) the number shown will be calculated with the current currency conversion rate.
The reason for this is to reflect the actual sum you are paying now as well as the sum paid when the license was purchased. This is the way Snow License Manager is intended to currently handle currency conversion.
Example:
An example calculation could be: You enter 55296 USD for the maintenance, this is multiplied with the conversion rate to SEK on Jan 1st 2021 - 8.2781 (Shown as 0.1208 in the table due to SEK being the base currency) giving us 457745,82 SEK. When saving the license and looking at the maintenance tab the sum is now shown as the previous sum in SEK (457745,82) multiplied with today's conversion rate which is 0.0959 which gives us 43 897.82 USD .
Note: License cost does not behave in the same way. Purchase cost is always shown at the conversion rate for the purchase date.
