What causes this issue?

in part identical to MN618
No source currency exists for target currency &V1&, so there are fixed
exchange rates between source and target currencies (e.g. currencies of
involved in European Monetary Union).

System Response

You can convert to arrangement currency &V1&.
As the exchange rates are not fixed, discrepancies may occur for the
incomes as a result of currency conversions.
The reason for this is that subsequent settlement uses the old
arrangement currencies. The incomes are converted to the new
arrangement currency if required. If exchange rates are not fixed, then
a discrepancy may occur.
Only when functions "Extend arrangements" and "Create arrangement with
reference" does the system convert the values to the new arrangement
currency.

How to fix this error?

Check your entries.
You can change the arrangement currency as you wish. However, it does
not make sense to do this if the exchange rate for the currency is not
fixed.
