Account Invoice Show Currency Rate
Odoo computes the currency rate applied on invoices, as well as for journal items. However, these rates are simply computed based on the currency rates that are configured in the system.
This module ensures that for posted entries the currency rates are computed taking into account the actual amounts in the specific currency. This ensures that the correct rates are displayed when an invoice was posted with a different rate configuration, or if the user manually changed the amount in currency.
auto_awesome What this module does
AI-generated from the code · Odoo 19.0Shows the real currency rate actually used on posted invoices and their journal items, instead of the rate currently configured in Odoo. Useful when an invoice was posted with a different rate or the amount in foreign currency was changed manually.
When an invoice is posted, Odoo normally displays the currency rate taken from the currency rate table. This module changes that: for posted invoices it recalculates the rate from the actual amounts recorded on the invoice, so the rate shown matches what was really applied.
- On a posted invoice, the invoice-level currency rate is recomputed from the foreign-currency amounts and the company-currency balances of its journal items.
- On each journal item of a posted invoice, the line-level currency rate is recomputed from that line's amount in foreign currency and its balance in company currency.
- Draft invoices are left untouched, so the standard Odoo behaviour still applies until the invoice is posted.
Where it appears: in the Journal Items list inside the invoice form (the account.move form), a new optional "Rate" column is added next to the Currency column. It is hidden by default and only visible to users who have the multi-currency feature enabled.
The module extends account.move and account.move.line and only overrides the currency-rate computations; it adds no new menus, no new models and no scheduled actions.
