Summary0011245: CHF filter broken
DescriptionGiven cases where the same currency is used, but for different scopes, like in my case (seen in Android)

- BFH/CHF, restricted to snack machines at BFH, and
- TOPS/CHF (stage), used for testing purposes (cf. https://docs.taler.net/deployments/tops-stage-devtesting.html), not backed by real CHF money,
- TOPS/CHF (production), used for real CHF transfers under the Swiss sandbox license, backed by real money,

it happens that the sums displayed at various areas in the app (most visibly when paying something) are just wrong, because the various CHF currencies are mixed (as in: somehow summed) together, but sometimes also with sums which are not simply the sum of all individual CHF sums.
Additional InformationWhile it's not usual that a regular user has this kind of setup, at BFH specifically this can very well happen, which these days is a focus group for Taler usage; some people might have BFH/CHF from the past, others -- e.g., CS students -- might also have TOPS/CHF (stage) money.

To avoid unnecessary support cases and impressions of having a surplus (or similar bad UX), this should be fixed asap.

Also investigation is needed if this also happens with other wallets.

I also think I reported this already in the past, but cannot find the ticket.

 Relate to ticket 0011210, which has as topic the problem that the wrong money might be sent to someone (relevant for P2P transfers); while less important, however (prio there, I propose: normal; here: high).
