Guatemala - Banguat Exchange Rate (USD/GTQ)

Auto-sync USD/GTQ exchange rate from Banco de Guatemala

ARMKU LLC  ·  Odoo 18.0  ·  version 18.0.1.0.2  ·  OPL-1

Daily USD/GTQ exchange rate sync from the Banco de Guatemala (Banguat).

What it does

  • Daily cron at 06:00 GT (12:00 UTC) calls Banguat's TipoCambioDia SOAP endpoint and upserts a res.currency.rate for USD on the company.
  • Adds a Refresh from Banguat now button on the USD currency form so you can pull the rate ad-hoc.
  • Includes a Range Backfill wizard under Invoicing → Configuration → Banguat FX for historical periods.
  • Every call (cron / manual / backfill) is logged with the raw XML response under Banguat Log.

Requirements

  • Odoo 18 Community or Enterprise.
  • Company currency must be GTQ. The module reads res.currency.rate as Odoo's standard "company currency to foreign currency" semantics and computes odoo_rate = 1 / banguat_reference automatically.
  • Outbound HTTPS to banguat.gob.gt (port 443).

Install

  1. Drop the module folder into your custom_addons path (e.g. /opt/odoo/custom_addons/l10n_gt_banguat_fx).
  1. Restart Odoo and update the apps list:

   sudo systemctl restart odoo
   # In the Odoo UI: Apps -> Update Apps List
  1. Search for Guatemala - Banguat Exchange Rate (USD/GTQ) and click Activate.

Quick test after install

  1. Settings -> Currencies -> open USD -> click Refresh from Banguat now.
  1. You should see a green notification "Exchange rate updated" and a new row under Invoicing -> Configuration -> Banguat FX -> Banguat Log with success = True.
  1. Confirm a new res.currency.rate was created for today with rate ~= 0.13 (it varies with the market).

Troubleshooting

  • "Company currency must be GTQ" — set Settings -> Companies -> your company -> Currency = GTQ.
  • "Error contacting Banguat" — outbound HTTPS may be blocked or the Banguat service may be down. Check the Banguat Log for the raw response.
  • Cron is not firing — ensure Settings -> Technical -> Scheduled Actions -> Banguat: Daily USD/GTQ exchange rate is active and nextcall is in the future.
