What causes this issue?

You maintained rebate arrangement types (e.g. &V1&) with subsequent
settlement (end-of-period rebate settlement) on a cross-company-code
basis.
Amounts are to be translated into another currency. For this purpose,
the program needs an interim currency (as a rule, this is the local
currency of the company code).
You can enter an interim currency manually. If you leave the field
blank, the currency of the company code to which the purchasing
organization belongs is used. If a company code is not assigned to the
purchasing organization, the company code (subsequent settlement) of
the purchasing organization is selected.

How to fix this error?

Please enter an interim currency (local currency) if necessary,
