[OFBiz] Users - customers and orders with multiple currencies

[Jacopo Cappellato]

David, Si,

the order manager currency stuff has been enhanced during the last week
thanks to the work of Peter Goron (that submitted the patches) and Andy
(that reviewed and applied them).
For more details see the thread "Patch for bug in ecommerce: store's
defaultCurrencyUom was not properly set
for not logged-in users".

Regards,

Jacopo Cappellato
