  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GLE_MCA221 - Enter amounts in functional crcy for &1 with the same exchange rate ?

    The SAP error message GLE_MCA221 indicates that there is an issue with the currency amounts entered in a transaction. Specifically, it suggests that the amounts in the functional currency for a particular document (indicated by &1) do not have the same exchange rate applied. This can occur in various financial transactions, such as journal entries or postings involving multiple currencies.

    Cause:

    1. Inconsistent Exchange Rates: The amounts in the functional currency (the currency in which the company operates) are not consistent with the exchange rates used for the transaction. This can happen if different exchange rates are applied to different line items or if the exchange rate has changed between the time of the transaction and the time of posting.

    2. Currency Conversion Issues: If the system is set up to convert currencies automatically, there may be discrepancies in how the conversion is applied to different amounts.

    3. Manual Entry Errors: Users may have manually entered amounts that do not align with the expected exchange rates.

    Solution:

    1. Check Exchange Rates: Verify the exchange rates used for the transaction. Ensure that the same exchange rate is applied consistently across all amounts in the functional currency.

    2. Review Document: Look at the document referenced by &1 to identify any discrepancies in the amounts or exchange rates. Ensure that all line items are using the same exchange rate.

    3. Adjust Amounts: If necessary, adjust the amounts in the functional currency to ensure they are consistent with the exchange rate applied.

    4. Use Correct Currency Settings: Ensure that the currency settings in the document are correct and that the system is configured to handle currency conversions appropriately.

    5. Consult SAP Documentation: If the issue persists, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for further troubleshooting.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like FB50 (for general ledger postings) or F-02 (for general postings) to review and correct the entries.
    • Currency Configuration: Check the configuration settings in the SAP system related to currency types and exchange rates (transaction code OB08 for maintaining exchange rates).
    • User Exits or BAdIs: If custom logic is applied in your SAP environment, check for any user exits or BAdIs that might affect currency handling.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the GLE_MCA221 error and ensure that your financial transactions are processed correctly.
