• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message THMHR_ADMIN631 - Source and Target Hedged Item are identical ?

  The SAP error message THMHR_ADMIN631 indicates that there is an issue with hedging items in the Treasury module, specifically that the source and target hedged items are identical. This typically occurs when you are trying to create or modify a hedge relationship, and the system detects that the source item (the item you are trying to hedge) and the target item (the hedging instrument) are the same.
  Cause:
  
  Identical Items: The most common cause of this error is that the source and target hedged items are the same. This can happen if you mistakenly select the same financial instrument for both hedging and being hedged.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the hedging relationships or the way the items are defined in the system.
  Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors during the setup of hedging relationships can lead to this situation.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Item Selection: Review the hedging relationship you are trying to create or modify. Ensure that the source and target items are not the same. You need to select a different hedging instrument for the target hedged item.
  Review Configuration: If you believe the items are correctly selected, check the configuration settings in the Treasury module to ensure that they are set up correctly.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on setting up hedging relationships correctly.
  Error Handling: If you are unsure about the correct items to select, consult with a financial analyst or a treasury expert within your organization to ensure that the hedging strategy aligns with your financial goals.
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the hedging relationship again to ensure that the error does not recur.
