  • What causes this issue?

    This problem is due to inconsistent currency definition for one control
    object. This error can occur when you are using a foreign currency type
    for the control ledger. The cause might be one of the following:
    You are deriving a source ledger with two different currencies to one
    control object resulting in one control object with two currencies
    A given GL account has been posted in two different currencies,
    resulting again in one control object with two different currencies, no
    matter which derivation rule is used.

    System Response

    Since this is an inconsistency during reconstruction program, the report
    only presents a warning, but the inconsistency means posting to those
    objects is not allowed. However, the reconstruction report run will
    finish and other objects will be built based on the Cash Control rules.

    How to fix this error?

    Depending on the cause, you can fix the problem in one of the following
    ways:
    Error by derivation:
    Check those derivations that aggregate G/L accounts. The objective is to
    aggregate those G/L accounts to corresponding objects that distinguish
    the currency. You can do so by including the currency as a source
    deriving object and derive those objects into dummy.
    Error by posting. As the objects already exist, you need have to decide
    between the following options:
    Define the control ledger with currency type 'local', so you will use
    the company code local currency in all postings, thereby avoiding the
    currency error.
    By deriving the objects to specific control objects using the currency
    to distinguish them or, in the case of zero-balance accounts, by using a
    Business Add-In (BAdI). For a more detailed explanation, check
