Hope you all are fine…
I am facing an issue in currency exchange what is happening now when I am creating any form eg. Sales Order and change my currency to USD it gives me this message:
so, when I search this issue on forum I found out to change the API in Currency Exchange Settings so I change service provider from frankfurter.app to exchangerate.host but it gives me this error:
Is there any thing which I have done wrong?
Thanks for the help.
One more thing: will I have to manually maintain this currency exchange record every day?
Is it not fetching the rates automatically?
You may have to check with https://exchangerate.host/ with which currencies they support. If they do not support your required currencies then you will have to maintain the rate manually or integrate with some other API to get rates.
Thanks, I will check this but one thing to clear:
Currently, I am only using USD which I believe is readily accessible due to its widespread usage. However, it does not to be retrieving the rates.
integrate with some other API to get rates.
If this not working as you told me I have to use some other API can you please tell me any one of them so, it may be very helpful for me can use that API?
exchangerate.host API has now become a paid service.
They do offer free plans but the currency to currency conversion is now only possible starting from their Basic Plan. Have a look at the pricing plans.
You have to enter exchange rates manually in “Currency Exchange” doctype and change the settings in Accounting to use the stale rates to use with ERPnext … until someone finds a free api option
v13.54.2 will have selectable service providers for Exchange Rates. It can be found in Accounts Settings → Currency Exchange Settings.
Your frustration totally resonates with me—I’ve been there too.So, you’ve already taken a proactive step by switching service providers, but it seems like the issue persists, huh? It’s puzzling, for sure. Have you double-checked all the settings and made sure your API key is properly configured with the new provider? Sometimes, it’s the little details that trip us up.In my own experience, I’ve found that sticking to the best online currency exchange platforms tends to minimize these headaches. They’ve been my go-to for smooth transactions, but I get that you’re looking for a solution tailored to your specific needs.
Hi,
Currently Free API Used by ERPNext has limited currencies and limitation of number API request.
If can always purchase the API access from the exchange rate providers of your choice and configure it as default in Currency Exchange Settings in ERPNext.
