unfortunately, that was the only way of being able to keep prices in EUR (or USD), but invoice them in base currency - in my case RON.

if you have a better ideea, I am willing to implement

more, I would like to make quotes/SO in EUR (or USD), but make the invoice in RON.
I couldn't figure out how.

setup
- create a user (eg cron) and assign the proper rights for operation
- change the user in define('_CJ_USER',.......
- run the script via php-cli (php rec_price.php)

Notes
- this is very very alpha code - use it with care
- most probably you do need such price updates, so use these files as skeletons for developing your own command line scripts

how to install (by hand)
- create a folder in /modules/cronjobs
- in /installed_extensions.php add:
XX => array(
  'name' => 'Cronjobs',
  'active' => true,
  'package' => 'cronjobs',
  'type' => 'extension',
  'version' => '0.1',
  'path' => 'modules/cronjobs',
),

where XX is the next extension id - do not forget to increment $next_extension_id

- in /modules/cronjobs add:
hooks.php
<?php
class hooks_cronjobs extends hooks {
    var $module_name = 'cronjobs';
    public function __construct() {
        global $_SESSION;
        // if _CJ is defined, login user non interactively
        if (_CJ==1) {
            $_SESSION['wa_current_user']->username = _CJ_USER;
            $_SESSION['wa_current_user']->loginname = _CJ_USER;
            $_SESSION['wa_current_user']->name = _CJ_USER;
            $_SESSION['wa_current_user']->set_company(_CJ_COY);
            $_SESSION['wa_current_user']->logged = true;
        }
    }
}
?>
