Download the exchange rate to any currency automatically: the automation that eliminates daily errors in your accounting
Updating exchange rates manually is a repetitive, error-prone task that consumes valuable time. That is why at Etendo we developed a functionality within the Financial Extensions Bundle that downloads the exchange rate to any currency automatically, keeping your accounting operations updated and accurate every day.
This automation is designed for companies of any industry that work with multicurrency accounting schemes, international operations or even currencies with high volatility.
The problem of updating exchange rates manually
Manually entering exchange rates generates a series of frequent issues:
- Incorrectly entered rates.
- Forgetting the daily update.
- Copying data incorrectly from external sources.
- Unbalanced accounting entries.
- Invoices with minimal differences that cause claims or rejections.
These are small but repetitive errors that affect accounting and operational efficiency.
And most importantly: they are completely avoidable.
