SAP Error Message - Details

  • Message text: Curr.type &1 in field &3 in table &2 does not have a particip.currency

  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    Field &V3& in table &V2& contains information on currency type &V1&. A
    preceding program in the local currency changeover determined that this
    currency type is never one of the participating currencies in your
    system in the current client. Either the currency type is not used at
    all in your system or it is only used in connection with
    non-participating currencies.
    This means that the field only ever appears with currencies which are
    not changed over. Therefore field &V3& will never be translated. This
    is why you can remove the changeover package's control information for
    this field.

    System Response

    The program recognized, on the basis of the current information on the
    use of currency types in the system's current client, that field &V3&
    is not affected by a changeover in any way and therefore deletes the
    superfluous control information for this field from the changeover
    package's control information.

    How to fix this error?

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
