Multi-currency system
|
||||
=====================
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo allows you to issue invoices, receive bills, and record transactions in currencies other than
|
||||
the main currency configured for your company. You can also set up bank accounts in other currencies
|
||||
and run reports on your foreign currency activities.
|
||||

||||

Configuration
|
||||
=============
|
||||
|
||||
.. _multi-currency/config-main-currency:
|
||||
|
||||
Main currency
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
The **main currency** is defined by default according to the company's country. You can change it by
|
||||
going to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings --> Currencies` and changing the
|
||||
currency in the :guilabel:`Main Currency` setting.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _multi-currency/config-enable:
|
||||
|
||||
Enable foreign currencies
|
||||
-------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Currencies`, and enable the currencies you
|
||||
wish to use by toggling the :guilabel:`Active` button.
|
||||

||||

|

|
||||
Currency rates
|
||||
--------------
|
||||
|
||||
Manual update
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
To manually create and set a currency rate, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration -->
|
||||
Currencies`, click on the currency you wish to change the rate of, and under the :guilabel:`Rates`
|
||||
tab, click :guilabel:`Add a line` to create a new rate.
|
||||
|
||||

:alt: Create or modify the currency rate.
|
||||
|
||||
Automatic update
|
||||
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||||
|
||||
When you activate a second currency for the first time, :guilabel:`Automatic Currency Rates` appears
|
||||
under :menuselection:`Accounting Dashboard --> Configuration --> Settings --> Currencies`. By
|
||||
default, you have to click on the **Update now** button (:guilabel:`🗘`) to update the rates.
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo can update the rates at regular intervals. To do so, change the :guilabel:`Interval` from
|
||||
:guilabel:`Manually` to :guilabel:`Daily`, :guilabel:`Weekly`, or :guilabel:`Monthly`. You can also
|
||||
select the web service from which you want to retrieve the latest currency rates by clicking on the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Service` field.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _multi-currency/config-exch-diff:
|
||||
|
||||
Exchange difference entries
|
||||
---------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Odoo automatically records exchange differences entries on dedicated accounts, in a dedicated
|
||||
journal.
|
||||
|
||||
You can define which journal and accounts to use to **post exchange difference entries** by
|
||||
going to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Settings --> Default Accounts` and editing
|
||||
the :guilabel:`Journal`, :guilabel:`Gain Account`, and :guilabel:`Loss Account`.
|
||||
|
||||
.. example::
|
||||
If you receive a payment for a customer invoice one month after it was issued, the exchange rate
|
||||
has likely changed since. Therefore, this fluctuation implies some profit or loss due to the
|
||||
exchange difference, which Odoo automatically records in the default **Exchange Difference**
|
||||
journal.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _multi-currency/config-coa:
|
||||
|
||||
Chart of accounts
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Each account can have a set currency. By doing so, all moves relevant to the account are forced to
|
||||
have that account's currency.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Charts of Accounts` and select a
|
||||
currency in the field :guilabel:`Account Currency`. If left empty, all active currencies are handled
|
||||
instead of just one.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _multi-currency/config-journals:
|
||||
|
||||
Journals
|
||||
--------
|
||||
|
||||
If a currency is set on a **journal**, that journal only handles transactions in that currency.
|
||||
|
||||
To do so, go to :menuselection:`Accounting --> Configuration --> Journals`, open the journal you
|
||||
want to edit, and select a currency in the field :guilabel:`Currency`. If left empty, all active
|
||||
currencies are handled instead of just one.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Payment registration
|
||||
--------------------
|
||||
|
||||
To register a payment in a currency other than your company's main currency, click on the
|
||||
:guilabel:`Register Payment` payment button of your document and, in the pop-up window, select a
|
||||
**currency** in the :guilabel:`Amount` field.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
:alt: Select the currency and journal to use before registering the payment.
|
||||
|
||||
.. _multi-currency/mca-statements:
|
||||
|
||||
Bank statements
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
When creating or importing bank statements, the amount is in the company's main currency. To see
|
||||
additional fields related to foreign currencies, click on the **columns dropdown button**
|
||||
(:guilabel:`⋮`) next to :guilabel:`Amount`, and check :guilabel:`Amount Currency` and
|
||||
:guilabel:`Foreign Currency`.
|
||||

||||

|
||||
|
||||
When reconciling, Odoo displays both the foreign currency amount and the equivalent amount in your
|
||||
company's main currency.
