</> &V1&, which is NOT used for currency translation. You cannot use
this document type because its <ZK>Translate into Group Currency
</>indicator is selected.
Note:
Even if the <ZK>group currency</> key figure is not selected for the
document type, currency translation into group currency still takes
place implicitly if you have selected the<ZK> transaction currency
