  The SAP error message 3F769 ("No budget currency stored in the customizing settings") typically occurs in the context of budget management within the SAP system, particularly when working with the Public Sector Management (PSM) module or similar financial management functionalities. This error indicates that the system cannot find a defined budget currency in the customizing settings, which is necessary for processing budget-related transactions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the system is unable to determine the currency in which the budget is maintained. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Missing Customizing Settings: The budget currency has not been defined in the customizing settings for the relevant controlling area or budget structure.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration for budget management may be incomplete or incorrectly set up.
  Transport Issues: If the customizing settings were transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process that led to missing settings.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Customizing Settings:

  Define Budget Currency:

  Make sure to save your changes.
  
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues:
