The problem

Paypal supports a limited number of currencies, which causes problems when your customers pay their invoices in a currency that does not supported by Paypal.
Here is the list of currencies that are supported by Paypal: https://developer.paypal.com/docs/api/reference/currency-codes/

What this module does

When customer carries out payment in a currency that is not supported by PayPal, this module will convert the payment amount into an amount in a currency (which is configurable) that is supported by Paypal before sending the payment data to Paypal.
During payment processing and payment notification, this module ensures that the converted amount is equivalent to the original one for full reconciliation.
During reconciliation, the difference due to exchange rate will be encoded into the exchange rate journal.

Example

Assume that
- The company currency is VND (Viet Nam Dong - đ), which is not a currency supported by Paypal
- Invoice INV/2019/0001 is amounted 2,000,010đ (in VND)
- The Paypal acquirer is configured with USD as the default currency for conversion in this case
- Exchange rate between VND/USD: 23,100
Payment process
- Convert VND to USD: 2,000,010 / 23,100 = 86.580519481, and will be rounded into 86.58
- Request Paypal to process payment for the $86.58
- After processing, Paypal notifies Odoo with success processing of the amount of $86.58.
- Odoo verifies this amount and generates a payment of $86.58 and posted with value of $86.58 * 23,100 = 1,999,998đ
- During reconciliation, the difference of 12đ (between 1,999,998đ and 2,000,010đ) will be encoded into the exchange rate difference. The corresponding invoice will be set to paid.
