• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message C+037 - Price unit changes only possible in currencies 2 and 3 ?

  The SAP error message C+037, which states "Price unit changes only possible in currencies 2 and 3," typically occurs in the context of material master data or pricing conditions in SAP. This error indicates that you are trying to change the price unit of a material or a pricing condition in a currency that is not allowed for such changes.
  Cause:
  
  Currency Configuration: In SAP, materials can have multiple currencies defined (e.g., currency 1 for the base currency, currency 2 for a second currency, and currency 3 for a third currency). The system restricts changes to the price unit to only certain currencies (usually currency 2 and currency 3).
  Price Unit Definition: The price unit is defined in the material master or pricing conditions, and changes to it are restricted based on the currency settings.
  Transaction Context: The error may arise during specific transactions, such as creating or changing a purchase order, sales order, or material master record.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Currency Settings: Verify the currency settings in the material master or pricing condition records. Ensure that you are attempting to change the price unit in either currency 2 or currency 3.
  Use Allowed Currencies: If you need to change the price unit, switch to one of the allowed currencies (currency 2 or currency 3) before making the change.
  Review Configuration: If you believe the configuration should allow changes in other currencies, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings in the relevant configuration areas (e.g., material master settings, pricing procedure).
  Transaction Type: Ensure that you are using the correct transaction type that allows for the changes you are trying to make.
