How to fix this error?

Maintain the flow types.

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

For each flow type which is in flow category "TA" and flagged as
relevant for accrual/deferral, you need to create currency swap flow
types as in the example below.
<DS:SIMG.SIMG_CFMENUFNMCFZCS>Define flow types</>
<DS:SIMG.SIMG_CFMENUFNMCFZBA>Assign offsetting flows</>
Define account determination for the flow types.
<DS:SIMG.SIMG_CFMENUFNMCFNZA>Define account determination</>

How can this happen?

To enable a currency swap posting to be made for the discount flow type
0165, you need to make the following settings:
Create flow types for inflows and outflows:
0950 A_Currency swap disc. outflow:
Flow category : "____"
Calculation cat. : "____"
Activity indicator : 08
Activity category : 0024
Assets/Liab. : 0
0952 A_Currency swap disc. inflow:
Flow category : "____"
Calculation cat. : "____"
Activity indicator : 07
Activity category : 0023
Assets/Liab. : 0
Assign offsetting flows:
Relationship 100: TR-LO euro currency swap premium/discount outflow
<ZH>Flow type:</>
0165 A_Discount debit pos. rec.
<ZH>Reference flow type:</>
0950 A_Currency swap disc. outflow
Relationship 101: TR-LO euro currency swap premium/discount inflow
<ZH>Flow type:</>
0165 A_Discount debit pos. rec.
<ZH>Reference flow type:</>
0952 A_Currency swap disc. inflow
You need to set up account determination for the flow types to ensure
that outflows from the "deferrals" account are posted to a currency
swap account, and the inflows returned from the currency swap account
are posted back to the "deferrals" account. The "deferrals" account
must be the same as the account for the flow type "0165 A_Discount
debit pos. rec.".
