  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message T7334 - Cross-rate calculation is only possible for cross-rate transactions ?

    The SAP error message T7334, which states "Cross-rate calculation is only possible for cross-rate transactions," typically occurs in the context of foreign currency transactions. This error indicates that the system is attempting to perform a cross-rate calculation, but the transaction in question does not meet the criteria for such a calculation.

    Cause:

    1. Transaction Type: The transaction you are trying to process is not a cross-rate transaction. Cross-rate transactions usually involve two foreign currencies, and the system expects a specific setup for these transactions.
    2. Currency Configuration: The currencies involved in the transaction may not be properly configured for cross-rate calculations in the system.
    3. Missing Exchange Rates: The necessary exchange rates for the currencies involved may not be maintained in the system.
    4. Incorrect Document Type: The document type being used may not support cross-rate calculations.

    Solution:

    1. Check Transaction Type: Ensure that the transaction you are processing is indeed a cross-rate transaction. If it involves only one foreign currency and the local currency, it will not qualify for cross-rate calculations.
    2. Verify Currency Configuration: Check the configuration of the currencies involved. Ensure that both currencies are set up correctly in the system and that they are recognized as foreign currencies.
    3. Maintain Exchange Rates: Go to the transaction for maintaining exchange rates (e.g., OB08) and ensure that the necessary exchange rates for the currencies involved are maintained. If they are missing, add the required rates.
    4. Review Document Type: Ensure that the document type you are using supports cross-rate transactions. If not, consider using a different document type that does.
    5. Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP support team for specific configurations related to cross-rate transactions.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as OB08 (Maintain Exchange Rates) and others related to currency settings.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional guidance or patches that may address the issue.
    • User Roles and Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to perform currency-related transactions and configurations.
