  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RY655 - From-currency &1: to-currency is missing ?

    The SAP error message RY655 indicates that there is a problem with currency conversion in a financial transaction. Specifically, it means that the system cannot find a valid exchange rate for the specified "from-currency" and "to-currency" pair. This typically occurs in scenarios involving currency translation, such as during the posting of financial documents or when running reports that require currency conversion.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Exchange Rate: The most common cause is that there is no exchange rate defined in the system for the specified currency pair.
    2. Incorrect Currency Configuration: The currencies involved may not be properly configured in the system.
    3. Date Issues: The exchange rate may not be valid for the date of the transaction. Exchange rates are often date-sensitive, and if the rate is not maintained for the specific date, the system will not find it.
    4. Currency Type Issues: The currencies may not be set up correctly in terms of their type (e.g., whether they are local, global, etc.).

    Solution:

    1. Check Exchange Rates:

      • Go to the transaction code OB08 (Maintain Exchange Rates) in SAP.
      • Verify if there is an exchange rate defined for the "from-currency" and "to-currency" pair.
      • If not, you will need to enter the appropriate exchange rate for the relevant date.
    2. Maintain Exchange Rate:

      • If the exchange rate is missing, you can add it by entering the required currencies and the corresponding rate.
      • Ensure that the validity date for the exchange rate covers the date of the transaction.
    3. Review Currency Configuration:

      • Check the configuration of the currencies involved to ensure they are set up correctly in the system.
      • You can use transaction code OB22 to review the currency types.
    4. Check Transaction Date:

      • Ensure that the transaction date falls within the validity period of the exchange rate you are trying to use.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • If you are unsure about the configuration or the process, refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP administrator or finance team.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • OB08: Maintain Exchange Rates
      • OB22: Define Currency Types
    • Currency Types: Understand the different types of currencies (e.g., local currency, group currency) and how they are used in your organization.
    • Exchange Rate Types: Familiarize yourself with the different exchange rate types (e.g., average rate, historical rate) and their applications in financial reporting.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the RY655 error and ensure that currency conversions can be processed correctly in SAP.
