Live Currency Exchange Rate

Auto-fetch live forex rates straight into your Odoo 19 database

Pull live currency rates from free APIs on a schedule, lock the rate at order confirmation, track full rate history with graphs, fire email alerts on threshold crossing, and auto-post forex gain/loss journals on payment ? all built for Odoo 19 Community and Enterprise.

Fetch Rates. Lock Them In. Track Every Move.

Standard Odoo currency rates are updated manually or via limited built-in providers. This module fetches live rates from frankfurter.app, with automatic fallback to exchangerate-api.com if the primary source fails, on a configurable schedule. Every fetch is logged, every sale/purchase order can lock its rate at confirmation, and forex gain/loss can post automatically when payments settle.

๐Ÿ”—

Dual Free API Sources

Primary rates pulled from frankfurter.app (no key required), with automatic fallback to open.er-api.com if the primary source is unreachable. No API subscription needed.

โฑ

Configurable Cron Schedule

Choose how often rates refresh ? every 15 minutes, hourly, every 6 hours, or once daily. Set it once in Settings and let it run unattended.

๐Ÿ”’

Rate Lock on Confirmation

Optionally lock the exchange rate when a Sale Order or Purchase Order is confirmed. The invoice generated from it reuses that exact locked rate ? no surprise variance.

๐Ÿ“Š

Rate History & Graph

Every fetch is logged with rate, inverse rate, source, and timestamp. View the full history per currency as a list or as a graph straight from the currency form.

๐Ÿ””

Rate Threshold Alerts

Define an "above" or "below" threshold per currency and notify specific users by email the moment a fetched rate crosses it. Stay ahead of unfavorable swings.

๐Ÿ’ฐ

Auto Forex Gain/Loss Journal

When a payment settles at a different rate than the invoice, the module can auto-post the forex gain or loss to dedicated accounts ? no manual journal entry required.

โšก

"Fetch Now" Button

Need a rate right now instead of waiting for the cron? A "Fetch Now" button is available on the currency form, Sale Order, Purchase Order, and Invoice.

โœ…

Last Fetch Status

The currency form shows the last fetch date, success/failed status, and which API source answered ? so you always know if live rates are actually flowing.

๐Ÿ“Š

Rate Variance Report

A wizard lets you filter forex payments by date range, partner, and currency, then export the invoice-vs-payment rate variance as PDF or XLSX.

See It In Action

1 Settings ? Configure Cron, Rate Lock & Forex Accounts
Under Settings, pick the fetch frequency, toggle rate lock on order confirmation, enable auto forex gain/loss journals, set the gain/loss accounts, and turn rate alerts on or off.
2 Currency Form ? Fetch Now & Last Fetch Status
Click "Fetch Now" on any currency to pull the latest rate instantly. The form shows last fetch date, success/failed status, and source API used.
3 Rate History ? List & Graph View
Every successful and failed fetch is logged with rate, inverse rate, source, and timestamp. Switch to graph view to see the trend over time at a glance.
4 Sale / Purchase Order ? Locked Rate Carries to Invoice
When rate lock is enabled, confirming an SO or PO freezes the exchange rate on the order. The invoice generated from it reuses that exact rate, eliminating mismatch surprises.
5 Rate Variance Report ? Wizard & PDF/XLSX Export
Filter forex payments by date range, partner, and currency, then generate a PDF or Excel report comparing invoice rate vs. payment rate for every settled transaction.

How It Works

1

Configure Settings

Pick a fetch frequency, enable rate lock and/or auto forex journal, set gain/loss accounts.

2

Cron Fetches Rates

The scheduler pulls live rates from frankfurter.app, falling back to open.er-api.com if needed.

3

Rate Logged & Checked

Every fetch is logged to history. If a threshold alert is set, crossing it triggers an email notification.

4

Order Locks the Rate

If enabled, confirming an SO/PO locks the live rate. The invoice that follows reuses it exactly.

5

Payment Posts Forex Entry

On payment, if the rate differs from the invoice, the gain/loss is auto-posted to the configured accounts.

Why Choose This Module?

No API Key, No Subscription

Both the primary and fallback rate sources are free and keyless. No paid forex data plan to budget for, no API credentials to manage.

Built-In Resilience

If the primary API is down, the fallback kicks in automatically. Every attempt ? success or failure ? is logged, so nothing happens silently.

Predictable Order-to-Invoice Rates

Rate lock removes the guesswork between when an order is confirmed and when it's invoiced ? the same rate carries through, every time.

Built on Odoo 19 Standards

Uses standard Odoo ORM, cron jobs, and mail templates. No monkey-patching of core accounting logic. Works with Community and Enterprise out of the box.
