What causes this issue?

Differences between the receiver and sender ledgers were found in the
second, third or fourth currency.
The receiver combination of global company/ledger &v1& that you defined
in Customizing uses currency &v2&, but the sender combination global
company/ledger &v3& uses currency &v4&.

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

System Response

Rollup:
During rollup, all amount fields of the relevant currency group (HSL,
KSL, OSL) are in this case set to amount 0 in the rollup ledger unless,
in the rollup definition under "Extras -> Different Currencies" you set
the indicator "Do not initialize currency fields".

How to fix this error?

Rollup:
If you activated the "Do not initialize currency fields" indicator, and
you have differences in your second, third or fourth currencies, you
can use a user exit to enter the correct amount in the corresponding
amount fields (HSL, KSL, OSL). For example, you can use a user exit to
have the system calculate correct group currency amounts from the local
currency amounts.
Copying planning templates:
Change your entries.
&NOTE&
If you do not use a user exit to calculate amounts in a third currency,
you can calculate these amounts later with the currency translation
program.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GL336 - Glob.company/ledger & uses currency &, but glob.company/ledger & uses & ?

  The SAP error message GL336 indicates a mismatch between the currency settings of a global company code and the ledger being used. Specifically, it suggests that the global company code and ledger are configured to use different currencies, which is causing the error.
  Cause:
  
  Currency Mismatch: The global company code is set to use one currency (e.g., local currency), while the ledger is configured to use a different currency (e.g., group currency or a different local currency).
  Configuration Issues: This can occur due to incorrect configuration in the Financial Accounting (FI) module, particularly in the settings for ledgers and company codes.
  Data Entry Errors: Sometimes, this error can arise from incorrect data entry when creating or modifying company codes or ledgers.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Go to the configuration settings for the company code and ledger in SAP.
  Ensure that the currency settings for both the global company code and the ledger match. You can check this in the following paths:
  
  For Company Code: SPRO > Financial Accounting > General Ledger > Master Data > G/L Account > Prepare G/L Account Creation > Define Company Code
  For Ledger: SPRO > Financial Accounting > General Ledger > Master Data > G/L Account > Prepare G/L Account Creation > Define Ledger
  
  
  
  
  
  Adjust Currency Settings:
  
  If there is a mismatch, you may need to adjust the currency settings for either the company code or the ledger to ensure they are consistent.
  If you need to change the currency of a company code or ledger, be cautious as this may have implications for existing transactions.
