How to fix this error?

Check your Customizing settings:
SAP supplies the evaluation types.
Remember, SAP supplies the evaluation types in client 000. You have to
copy them into your working clients. If you do not have them in your
system, you can create them in Customizing for the Treasury component
(Treasury Management -> Market Risk Management -> Evaluations -> Define
Default Settings). Create evaluation type IM01 with bid yield curve
type 9990 and ask yield curve type 9991.
In Customizing for appropriation requests (under Planning), create a
bid yield curve type 9990 and an ask yield curve type for the currency
of the controlling area of the appropriation request.
Create at least one reference interest rate for each yield curve.
Maintain the reference rates, starting at the minimum fron the point at
which you you have planned costs or revenue.
Check Customizing of the exchange rate types 'G' and 'B' in the IMG
under Global Settings -> Currencies.
