Day 364

Ehhh


Cancel + edit done


BUT


There's an edge case where Shopify doesn't allow you to edit orders in a different currency. The solution...


Is to make a workaround


Duplicate the order


Refund restock


Something something



But I'll have to do that tomorrow


I could ignore it


But ~20% of customers international


International --> scaling



E.g. if you're selling in GBP and lots of customers from USA, you can't edit those orders


Same vice versa



Not even a language barrier, just some dumb currency conversion barrier



Facebook does the same thing with ad accounts


They don't let you edit ad account details or something if you're using the same currency


Which makes sense ish due to historic currency conversion


but they don't even need that


they could just have past info in previous currency and new info in new currency


or simply let you download past info + ignore previous info



But anyway


We've created work for ourself by identifying a problem


Now we have to solve it


Yes I know day 359


6 days away from day 365



Can we make it in time


Hahahhahahahahhahaha idk


we'll see
