• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FARR_CONTRACT_MAIN797 - Currency of SSP for perf. ob. &1 is different with other condition type ?

  The SAP error message FARR_CONTRACT_MAIN797 indicates that there is a discrepancy in the currency settings for the SSP (Service Settlement Price) related to a performance obligation in a contract. Specifically, it suggests that the currency of the SSP for the specified performance obligation is different from the currency of other condition types associated with that contract.

  Check Currency Settings: Review the contract and ensure that the currency for the SSP matches the currency of other condition types. You can do this by navigating to the contract in the SAP system and checking the relevant fields.
  Adjust Contract Details: If there is a mismatch, you may need to adjust the currency of the SSP or the other condition types to ensure they are consistent. This may involve editing the contract or creating a new one with the correct currency settings.
  Review Configuration: If this issue occurs frequently, it may be necessary to review the configuration settings in the SAP system to ensure that they are set up correctly to prevent currency mismatches.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling currency settings in contracts and performance obligations.
