This error indicates that the system is unable to find a valid exchange rate for converting a transaction currency (denoted as &1) to an evaluation currency (denoted as &2).
  Cause:
  
  Missing Exchange Rate: The most common cause of this error is that there is no exchange rate defined in the system for the specified transaction currency and evaluation currency combination.
  Incorrect Configuration: The currency settings in the system may not be properly configured, leading to missing or incorrect exchange rates.

  Solution:
  
  
  Maintain Exchange Rates:
  
  Go to the transaction code OB08 (or use the appropriate transaction for maintaining exchange rates).

  If not, you will need to create a new entry for the required exchange rate.
  
  
  
  Check Validity Dates:
