The currency name is E000081. There are lots of similarly named currencies, the appear to be related to investment purchases. This one is related to a CD that I purchased. KMM does not handle CDs well and it's always a mess trying to straighten out my accounts after importing CD transactions via ofx. I know fixing investments is on the to do list, I just hope it fixes the handling of CDs.
I don't understand where this or any of the "E000" currencies came from and I don;t know why 81 is the only one that is attempting to be updated when I update stocks and currencies. ---- Brendan Coupe On Sat, Jul 21, 2018 at 12:57 PM, Jack <ostrof...@users.sourceforge.net> wrote: > On 2018.07.21 14:45, Brendan Coupe wrote: >> >> I started getting this error a few weeks go: >> >> >> "Failed to retrieve an exchange rate for USD > E000081 from KMyMoney >> Currency.
