Convert currencies processor problem

Hello,

I am working on some projects where i need to convert currencies (USD to EUR) for some energy commodities indexes, mainly coal. I am having some trouble using the "Convert currencies" processor as it does not give any result from a parsed date column (from 1/1/2020 to 31/12/2020) and it seems that the last known rates dated from 04/11/2019 so there's no output fro the processor from this date onwards.

Do you know if there's a solution other that using a Jupyter notebook and install and ad-hoc library for currency conversion?

Best regards

    Hello,

    You can update the currency conversion processor's rates by opening a terminal and executing the following command in the DSS data directory:

    $DATA_DIR/bin/dku update-currency-rates

    Note that this will only work if your DSS has direct outgoing internet connectivity (no proxy).
