SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: FIN_CS_MESSAGE - Cloud Consolidation Message Class

• Message number: 126

• Message text: The GC you entered should be the same as the GC on the database.

What causes this issue?

The group currency (GC) you entered &v1& differs from the existing one
on the database &v2&. If you have used the version for consolidation
before, the group currency must be the same as the group currency on the
database. You can only change the GC if you haven?t used the version for
consolidation before.

System Response

If you have already created data in table ACDOCU (Group Journal Entries)
for group currency, you risk data inconsistency if you now use a
different group currency. Use the same group currency as stored on the
database if you have used the version for consolidation before.

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