Can Odoo handle multi-currency accounting properly or does it need heavy customization?

We invoice clients in 3 different currencies. Does Odoo actually handle multi-currency accounting out of the box or is that usually something that needs custom work?

    It's handled natively, exchange rates can update automatically and it tracks currency gain and loss on its own. For most businesses invoicing in a few currencies, standard Odoo just works out of the box. Customization usually only comes up for specific regional compliance stuff or unusual revaluation rules, not basic multi-currency invoicing.

    We run 2 currencies and it's handled everything fine without touching any code, just had to set the exchange rate update frequency properly in settings.

    One thing to watch for though, realized vs unrealized currency gains on the balance sheet still need a proper month end close process, it doesn't just sort itself out automatically.
