AI-generated from the code · Odoo 12.0

Adds OpenExchangeRates.org as a currency exchange rate provider in Odoo, so companies can automatically fetch and update currency rates using their own OpenExchangeRates.org App ID.

This module extends the currency rate update feature to support OpenExchangeRates.org as a data source. After installing, users can select "OpenExchangeRates.org" as the service when configuring a currency rate provider.

To use it, an administrator must enter their OpenExchangeRates.org App ID in the Accounting settings. This field is company-specific, so each company can have its own credentials. The setting appears in the Accounting configuration screen, next to the automatic currency rate update option.

Once configured, the system can retrieve the list of supported currencies and download historical exchange rates for a chosen base currency and date range. The rates are fetched from the OpenExchangeRates.org API and stored in Odoo, allowing automatic updates of currency rates.

If the App ID is missing or invalid, the system raises a clear error message and stops the update. The module works together with the base currency_rate_update module and touches the res.company, res.config.settings, and res.currency.rate.provider models.
