I have installed the currency_rate_update module in Odoo 8.0 in view of setting up Odoo to automatically download the CAD / USD exchange rate each day. I have set the CAD currency in the Accounting Menu to be the base currency with a rate of 1.0000. Under Companies > My Company > Currency Update Configuration i have set the webservice to use as Bank of Canada, a frequency of 1 day. Then i added the USD currency as the only currency to update using this service. I have checked the "Automatic Update" box. Now, if i click "Refresh Currencies" the exchange rate for today is pulled in and saved as expected. What is not working is the automatic part. I have had the module configured like this for several weeks - but it has never successfully done an automatic update. Only the manual refresh currency rates are in my database.
I have also looked under Settings > Technical > Automation > Scheduled Actions > Currency Rate Update. The "Next Execution Date is incrementing from day to day.....
Is there a log saved somewhere to show why the automatic update is failing? I looked in the /var/odoo/odoo-server.log but do not see anything related to currency updates.
Thanks for your help!
Thank you Fekete - setting the next run field does appear to have fixed this issue. Is there a way to set what time of day the cron job runs? Sorry i can't mark your as the answer - i still don't have enough karma....
