• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_PE154 - 3rd local currency is stored in multiple ledgers ?

  The SAP error message CNV_PE154 indicates that there is an issue with the configuration of the third local currency in your SAP system. Specifically, it suggests that the third local currency is being stored in multiple ledgers, which can lead to inconsistencies and complications in financial reporting and data processing.
  Cause:
  
  Multiple Ledgers: The error typically arises when the same third local currency is configured in more than one ledger. This can happen due to incorrect settings during the configuration of the ledgers or during the migration process.
  Configuration Issues: If the system is set up to use multiple ledgers for different purposes (e.g., legal, group, or management reporting), and the same currency is assigned to more than one of these ledgers, it can trigger this error.
  Data Migration: If you are migrating data from another system or during a system upgrade, the mapping of currencies to ledgers may not have been done correctly.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Ledger Configuration: Check the configuration of your ledgers in the SAP system. Ensure that the third local currency is assigned correctly and is not duplicated across multiple ledgers.
  
  Go to the transaction code OB22 to review the ledger settings.
  
  
  Adjust Currency Settings: If you find that the third local currency is indeed assigned to multiple ledgers, you will need to adjust the settings to ensure that each ledger has a unique configuration for the third local currency.
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on your financial data to ensure that there are no other related issues that could be causing this error.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to currency configuration and ledger settings for more detailed guidance.
