Croatia adopted the euro recently, which means any store older than that has orders recorded in kuna sitting alongside orders in euro.
A changeover does not rewrite the past, and every report crossing that date has to handle two units.
Rewriting historical totals into euro destroys the record of what was actually charged. Orders retain the currency they were placed in, with the conversion stored rather than substituted.
A twelve-month comparison spanning the switch is adding two units together. Reporting converts at the recorded rate instead of treating the numbers as interchangeable.
A reissued invoice has to show what the customer paid, in the currency they paid it. That is a retention requirement rather than a display preference.
Storage stays in the EU with the location named, which matters for a market that recently joined the euro area.
Coastal and accommodation sites run several times their winter baseline through summer, which is planned for rather than discovered.
The failure is a revenue chart that looks like a collapse or a boom at the changeover date, because two currencies were summed as if they were one.
Speed is not the issue on a Croatian store. Whether a report spanning the changeover produces a number anybody can defend is.
A recent currency changeover leaves a permanent seam in the data, and every report crossing it has to account for that.
| Setting | What we do | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Historical currency | Original currency retained on legacy orders | Rewriting past totals into euro destroys the record of what was actually charged, which is the thing an invoice has to reproduce. |
| Report conversion | Applied at the recorded rate rather than summing units | A chart spanning the changeover adds kuna to euro unless conversion is explicit, producing a discontinuity that looks like a trading event. |
| Invoice reproduction | Reissued showing the currency the customer paid | Retention obligations require reproducing the document as issued, not a restated version in today's currency. |
| Storage disclosure | EU location named for site and backups | Recent accession makes buyers here more likely to ask precisely rather than accept a region name. |
| Seasonal capacity | Planned around a summer peak well above baseline | Coastal and accommodation sites have a genuine season, so an annual average understates the load for months at a time. |
Every plan includes free migration, daily backups, SSL and 24/7 support.
Move the store to an EU origin — migration is free, order history intact.
