  8. Moving forward you can manage your other Product Collections as normal and the CAD currency will be applied to all collections automatically. 
Warning! If the global currency filter is removed, products with CAD and/or USD pricing will appear in search results. Products that have only USD pricing will not display pricing on product details pages or in product ribbons and cannot be ordered on your website.


Take note of the number of products in your collections. If no products meet the collections filter criteria in addition to the global CAD Currency filter you’ll see “0 products in this collection”.
