  The SAP error message THM_EXPOSURE068 indicates that there is an issue with a hedge plan in the Treasury module, specifically related to foreign currency exposure for interest rate risk. This error typically arises when you attempt to include foreign currency exposures in a hedge plan that is not configured to handle them.
  Cause:
  
  Hedge Plan Configuration: The hedge plan you are trying to use is likely configured to only handle domestic currency exposures. If you attempt to include foreign currency exposures, the system will throw this error.
