The problem
By default, the foreign currency conversion in Odoo does not depend on any bank. Users must define the currency rates published by the bank of their choice. However, this causes inconvenience when a business has transactions in foreign currencies with different exchange rates in various banks at a time. On the other hand, foreign currency exchange activities are done with selling/buying rates of the same bank.
Solutions
This module provides the following features:
- When setting up a foreign currency, be able to select a specific bank and the Exchange Type (Sell or Buy) to configure the exchange rate for each bank corresponding to each selling or buying currency activity.
- During the foreign currency conversion, if a bank is defined then the exchange rate at the said bank will be used. In case no bank is specified, the exchange rate of the main bank was configured in the Settings of the Accounting app.
