Thank You Mehjabin,

That was a very detailed explanation.

I have seen the link but unable to see any reference about parallel currency feature.


It would be very helpful for me if you could help me on this.

Hi,
You can enable multi currency in odoo by following the below steps:
1. Enable the developer mode from general settings (make sure you have logged in with admin access)
2.Once you activated developer mode go to user form and enable Multi currencies group
3.Go to Accounting-> Configuration->Currencies
Here you can configure multiple currencies as per your need
Thanks

Hi Muhammad, did you find an answer for this?

Hi,
Yes, Odoo does support the use of multiple currencies, including parallel currencies. You can define additional currencies for your company and use them for various financial transactions, including GL, AP, AR, and fixed assets.

To enable the use of parallel currencies in Odoo, you need to do the following:

  1. Activate multi-currency accounting: Go to the "Settings" menu, click on "Accounting" and then click on "Configuration". Check the box for "Allow multi-currencies" and save the settings.

  2. Add new currencies: Go to the "Accounting" menu and click on "Currencies". Click on "Create" to add new currencies, and enter the required information such as currency code, name, and exchange rate.

  3. Define currency rates: Go to the "Accounting" menu and click on "Currency Rates". Click on "Create" to define new currency rates, and enter the required information such as currency, rate, and date.

  4. Set up parallel currency for your company: Go to the "Settings" menu, click on "Companies", and select your company. Under the "Accounting" tab, click on "Advanced settings" and then check the box for "Use a secondary currency". Select the currency you want to use as the parallel currency and save the settings.

Once you have set up parallel currency for your company, you can use it for various financial transactions in Odoo, including GL, AP, AR, and fixed assets. You can also view reports in both the local currency and the parallel currency.


Refer this official documentation by Odoo for more details:

Hope this will help you

Thanks

Hi, these steps require the previous installation of a third party module?

No, just you need to install default accounting module by odoo and you can use this feature. No need of a third party application.

Pablo me parece que está equivocado Muhammad, no existe un "Tab" que se llame Advanced Accounting en la ficha de la empresa.

Still curious since this is highly important for us.. would you mind specifying which Odoo version and the field's name, on what model?
