SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SG - Global Pool for Cross-Application Developments

• Message number: 123

• Message text: For rate type & rates with from-currency & are relevant

What causes this issue?

Exchange rate type &V1& has base currency &V2&, and the "Base currency
is From currency" flag is set, so entries for which the 'From currency'
is the base currency are used to calculate the exchange rates. The
'From currency' &V3& which you specified is different from base
currency &V2&.
&BEISPIEL&
One exchange rate type has the base currency 'A'. The exchange rates:
from currency = 'A' to currency = 'B' and
from currency = 'A' to currency = 'C'
are used to determine the exchange rate from currency 'B' to currency
'C'.

System Response

Warning.
The system uses directly entered exchange rates for missing exchange
rates with the base currency &V2&.

How to fix this error?

Only maintain exchange rates with 'From currency' &V2& for exchange
rate type &V1&

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

Change or delete the base currency for exchange rate type &V1& or set
the "Base currency is From currency" flag to Space.
