  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KM645 - Only individual values are allowed for the currency key of the trans.cur. ?

    The SAP error message KM645 ("Only individual values are allowed for the currency key of the trans.cur.") typically occurs in the context of financial transactions or reporting when there is an issue with the currency key being used in a transaction. This error indicates that the system expects a single currency value, but it has received multiple values or an invalid entry.

    Cause:

    1. Multiple Currency Keys: The transaction is trying to use multiple currency keys where only one is allowed. This can happen if the system is configured to allow only individual currency values for certain transactions.
    2. Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the currency in the relevant financial module (like Controlling or Financial Accounting) may not be set up correctly.
    3. Data Entry Error: There may be a mistake in the data entry where the user has inadvertently entered multiple currency keys or an invalid currency code.
    4. Master Data Issues: The master data for the relevant financial objects (like cost centers, profit centers, etc.) may not be correctly defined with respect to currency.

    Solution:

    1. Check Currency Key: Review the currency key being used in the transaction. Ensure that it is a valid single currency code (e.g., USD, EUR) and not a range or multiple values.
    2. Review Transaction Data: Go through the transaction data to ensure that only one currency key is being used. If multiple currencies are being entered, correct this to a single currency.
    3. Configuration Settings: Check the configuration settings in the relevant SAP module (like controlling or financial accounting) to ensure that they are set up to accept only individual currency values.
    4. Master Data Review: Verify the master data for the relevant financial objects to ensure that they are correctly defined with respect to currency. If necessary, update the master data to reflect the correct currency settings.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling currency settings in the relevant module.

    Related Information:
