This error typically occurs when you are trying to perform a transaction that requires currency conversion, but the system cannot find the necessary exchange rate.

  Verify Date Validity: Ensure that the date of the transaction falls within the range of valid exchange rates. If necessary, add or adjust the exchange rates for the required date.
  Check Configuration: Review the configuration of the exchange rate indicator in the system to ensure it is set up correctly.
