  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PG390 - The validity of the currency & ends in the period entered (-> &) ?

    The SAP error message PG390 indicates that there is an issue with the validity of a currency in relation to a specific period. This error typically arises when you are trying to post a transaction or perform an operation that involves a currency that is not valid for the specified period.

    Cause:

    1. Currency Validity Period: The currency you are trying to use has a defined validity period, and the period you are entering falls outside of this range. This can happen if the currency was deactivated or if its validity was set to a specific timeframe that does not include the current date or the date of the transaction.
    2. Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the currency settings in the SAP system, such as incorrect date ranges or missing entries for the currency in the relevant tables.
    3. Master Data Issues: The master data for the relevant entity (e.g., customer, vendor, or material) may not be set up correctly, leading to the use of an invalid currency.

    Solution:

    1. Check Currency Validity: Verify the validity period of the currency in question. You can do this by checking the currency settings in the SAP system. Navigate to the relevant configuration area (e.g., transaction OB08 for exchange rates) and ensure that the currency is valid for the period you are trying to use.
    2. Adjust Posting Date: If possible, adjust the posting date to fall within the valid period of the currency.
    3. Update Master Data: If the issue is related to master data, ensure that the relevant records (e.g., customer or vendor master data) are correctly set up with the appropriate currency and validity dates.
    4. Consult with Configuration Team: If you suspect that there are configuration issues, consult with your SAP configuration team to review the settings related to currencies and their validity periods.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: You may need to use transaction codes like OB08 (for maintaining exchange rates) or OBA1 (for maintaining currency settings) to check and update currency configurations.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for detailed information on currency management and validity periods.
    • Support: If the issue persists, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP helpdesk for further assistance.
