[Vtigercrm-developers] Issue for discussion re: vtws_retrieve and currencies...

[Alan Lord]

There is a bit of a UX crash going on here.

I started trying to look for where these other product currency values 
were being stored but I couldn't see anything obvious in my dev 
database. So checking the debug log and the javascript console 
demonstrated to me that this is not being saved at all.

Open your Product in Edit View,

Load your javascript console.

Load the Popup by clicking on "more currencies",

Select an other currency and enter a nice rounded-up value for your 
product, then click save.

Nothing happens. Nothing is saved.

Refresh the page and reload the popup and you will see nothing has stored.

However, if you click Save in the Popup, *and* then Save again in Edit 
View, then it saved.

That's a bit annoying.
