  The SAP error message FINS_ACDOC_CUST131 indicates an issue related to currency conversion settings in the system. Specifically, it points out that the real-time currency conversion is switched off for a particular currency type, which is causing a problem in processing financial documents.
  Cause:
  
  Currency Type Configuration: The error arises when the system attempts to perform a transaction that requires real-time currency conversion, but the configuration for the specified currency type does not allow for it. This can happen if the currency type is not set up correctly in the system.
  Source Currency Type: The source currency type may not be configured to allow real-time conversion, leading to this error when trying to process transactions involving that currency.
  Transaction Settings: The specific transaction or document type being processed may require real-time currency conversion, but the settings for the involved currency types do not support it.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Currency Type Settings:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for currency types in SAP (Transaction code: OB08 or through the SPRO menu).
  Verify that the currency type in question (indicated by &1) is set up to allow real-time conversion.
  Ensure that the source currency type (indicated by &2) is also configured correctly.
  
  
  
  Adjust Real-Time Conversion Settings:
  
  If the real-time conversion is required, you may need to enable it for the relevant currency types. This can typically be done in the configuration settings for financial accounting.
  Consult with your SAP FI/CO consultant to ensure that the settings align with your business requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Transaction Types:
  
  Check if the transaction type being processed requires real-time currency conversion and if it is compatible with the currency types involved.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary adjustments, test the transaction again to ensure that the error is resolved.
