Dutch term
Process country-currency
Dutch to English
Other
Internet, e-Commerce
N'th of those again
The term appears on the list of expressions of an e-commerce site. I have only the list, no context.
The texts have apparently originally been in Dutch.
There obviously is a corresponding Dutch expression that has been translated this way. What may have that Dutch expression meant? Could it have meant that the price is (re)calculated according the VAT, shipment costs and currency depending on the country of the customer? Or just changing the country and currency?
I don't know Dutch at all. I am translating the text from English to Finnish. So please give your answer explanation in English.

process country-currency > explanation
I am guessing again that they mean 'converting to national currency'.
But to be sure, you have to ask your client!

Comment: "Thans to everybody. I just picked up this quickest one, because I can't divide these points. I tried to put it in Finnish in a way that can cover as wide a range of guesses as possible."

processing country and currency
this would be a common mistake for a Dutch person, writing process wehere they actually should write processing...

Process currency
Another option is that the original was "nationale valuta verwerken", that is: "process (national) currency"
But this is as much a guess as all the other suggestions.

Discussion
I think you would better ask these questions with the language-pair reversed - they're more Dutch-English questions than Englisch-Dutch.
