Currency Rate Update

Import exchange rates from the Internet.

The module is able to use the following sources:

1. Admin.ch Updated daily, source in CHF.
2. European Central Bank (ported by Grzegorz Grzelak - OpenGLOBE.pl) The reference rates are based on the regular daily query procedure between central banks within and outside the European System of Central Banks, which normally takes place at 2.15 p.m. (14:15) ECB time. Source in EUR. http://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/exchange/eurofxref/html/index.en.html
3. Yahoo Finance Updated daily
4. Polish National Bank (Narodowy Bank Polski) (by Grzegorz Grzelak - OpenGLOBE.pl) Takes official rates from www.nbp.pl. Adds rate table symbol in log. You should check when rates should apply to bookkeeping. If next day you should change the update hour in schedule settings because in Odoo they apply from date of update (date - no hours).
5. Banxico for USD & MXN (created by Agustín Cruz) Updated daily
6. Bank of Canada
7. National Bank of Romania (Banca Nationala a Romaniei)

Configuration

The update can be set under the company form. You can set for each services which currency you want to update. The logs of the update are visible under the service note. You can active or deactivate the update. The module uses internal ir-cron feature from Odoo, so the job is launched once the server starts if the 'first execute date' is before the current day.

Usage

The module supports multi-company currency in two ways:

• when currencies are shared, you can set currency update only on one company
• when currencies are separated, you can set currency on every company separately

A function field lets you know your currency configuration.

If in multi-company mode, the base currency will be the first company's currency found in database.
