• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5D097 - Currency changes in current period on & from & to & ?

  The SAP error message 5D097 indicates that there are currency changes in the current period for a specific time frame. This error typically arises when there are inconsistencies or issues related to currency settings in financial documents or transactions.
