Hello,

I am experiencing an issue in Odoo 18 Accounting regarding manual currency exchange rates on invoices.


I create a new Invoice (or Vendor Bill) in a foreign currency (EUR) while the company currency is TRY.

Instead of using the automatic system rate based on the "Invoice Date", I manually adjust the exchange rate (or the amount in company currency) in the draft state.

However, when I click the Confirm button, Odoo automatically recalculates the rate based on the Invoice Date and overwrites my manually entered exchange rate with the system's official rate.


I want Odoo to respect the manual rate I entered in the draft stage and prevent it from re-computing/resetting the rate upon confirmation.

My question is: Is there a standard configuration or a specific way to handle this in Odoo 18? I checked the action_post method code, but I couldn't find a direct flag (like a context key) to disable this re-computation behavior.


Thanks!

Hi,

In standard Odoo 18, this behavior is expected and there is no built-in configuration option that forces the system to permanently respect a manually typed exchange rate on invoices at posting time.
When you click Confirm (Post):
    Odoo recomputes monetary fields
    It recalculates company currency amounts
    It applies the exchange rate based on:
        invoice_date
        Currency rate table (res.currency.rate)
        Company
There is no configuration option and no context flag that prevents the system from recomputing the exchange rate when an invoice is posted.
Instead of trying to override the invoice:
    Go to Accounting / Invoicing → Configuration → Currencies
    Open EUR
    Add a new rate record
    Set:
        Date = your invoice date
        Rate = your desired manual rate

Now when you confirm the invoice:

    Odoo will use that rate
    No recalculation issue

    Fully standard behavior


Hope it helps
