Distinction between original currency and local currency #27

Open bschweighofer opened 1 year ago

It would be important that all cost information is always recorded in the original currency selected by the publisher and the local currency applicable in the target country. The cost information in local currency is the cost that is debited in the library's or customer's budget title. The conversion rate between original currency and local currency should not be requested, but can be calculated from the currency amounts.

The original currency is modeled in amount_invoice:

     <opencost:amount_invoice currency="EUR">1681.82</opencost:amount_invoice>

The cost information in local currency is the cost that is debited in the library's or customer's budget title.

This is modeled in amounts_paid:

      <opencost:amounts_paid>
        <opencost:amount_paid currency="EUR" type="apc">1681.82</opencost:amount_paid>
