How to fix this error?

Assign a company code for subsequent settlement to the purchasing
organization. This company code bears no relation to the company code
assigned to the purchasing organization for other purchasing
transactions. You cannot assign the latter company code, for example.
By doing this, you define which company code is used as the basis for
currency conversions. Message output uses for example the fields
"Language" and "Country" for the print output.
If necessary, contact your system administrator.
