    3. Adjust Currency Settings: If necessary, adjust the currency settings in the vendor master data or purchasing organization settings to ensure consistency.
    4. Use Correct Transaction: If you are trying to process a transaction in a different currency, consider creating a new purchase order in the correct currency or using a different transaction that aligns with the PO currency.
    5. Maintain Exchange Rates: Ensure that the exchange rates are maintained correctly in the system for the currencies involved. This can be done in the transaction code OB08 (Maintain Exchange Rates).
