  The SAP error message FKK_PAY050 indicates that there are pay items with different currencies that cannot be processed together in a single payment run. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions where multiple items are being processed, and the system requires that all items in a single payment run must be in the same currency.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You are trying to process multiple pay items (e.g., invoices, credit memos) that have different currencies.
  The payment run is configured to handle only one currency at a time, and the items being processed have different currencies (e.g., one item in USD and another in EUR).
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Separate Payment Runs: 
  
  Ensure that you separate the pay items by currency. Create different payment runs for each currency. For example, run one payment for all items in USD and another for all items in EUR.
  
  
  
  Check Payment Program Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration of the payment program in SAP. Ensure that it is set up to handle multiple currencies if that is your requirement. However, typically, the standard behavior is to process one currency at a time.
  
  
  
  Review Pay Items:
  
  Check the pay items that are causing the error. You can do this by reviewing the payment proposal or the items selected for payment. Make sure that they are all in the same currency.
  
  
  
  Use Payment Methods:
  
  If you have specific payment methods configured for different currencies, ensure that you are using the correct payment method that corresponds to the currency of the pay items.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for more detailed guidance on handling payments in multiple currencies.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like F110 (Automatic Payment Transactions) to manage payment runs.
  Configuration Settings: Check the configuration settings in the Financial Accounting (FI) module, particularly under the payment program settings.
  Currency Conversion: If necessary, consider whether currency conversion is required for your transactions, and ensure that the appropriate exchange rates are maintained in the system.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the FKK_PAY050 error and successfully process your payment items.
