  The payment order was created in a different currency than the one expected for clearing.
  There are configuration issues in the currency settings for the relevant accounts or transactions.
  The transaction involves multiple currencies, and the conversion rates or settings are not properly aligned.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: Incorrect settings in the financial accounting configuration, such as the currency settings for the company code, payment methods, or clearing accounts.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Payment Order Currency: Verify the currency of the payment order (transaction) and ensure it matches the clearing currency expected by the system.
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings:

  Ensure that the clearing accounts are set up correctly to handle the currencies involved.
  
  
  
  Adjust Payment Order: If the payment order was created incorrectly, you may need to adjust or recreate it in the correct currency.
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes:
  
  Use transaction codes like FBL1N (Vendor Line Item Display) or FBL3N (G/L Account Line Item Display) to review the line items and identify any discrepancies.
