  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VF_PRC_CPF010 - Currency conversion: missing exchange rates/factors between &1 and &2 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation of the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    VF_PRC_CPF010 Currency conversion: missing exchange rates/factors between &1 and &2


    Cause:

    This error occurs during billing or pricing processes (e.g., in transaction VF01, VF02, or during pricing in SD) when SAP tries to convert amounts from one currency to another but cannot find the required exchange rate or conversion factor in the system.

    Specifically, the system is missing the exchange rate or factor for the currency pair between the two currencies represented by placeholders &1 and &2 (e.g., from USD to EUR).


    Why does this happen?

    • The exchange rate for the currency pair is not maintained in the system.
    • The validity period of the exchange rate does not cover the document date.
    • The exchange rate type used in the pricing procedure or document is not maintained.
    • The currency conversion settings in the system are incomplete or incorrect.

    Solution:

    1. Check and Maintain Exchange Rates:

      • Go to transaction OB08 (or S_ALR_87003642 for exchange rate overview).
      • Verify if the exchange rate between the two currencies (&1 and &2) exists.
      • If missing, maintain the exchange rate for the relevant exchange rate type (usually 'M' for standard rates).
      • Ensure the exchange rate is valid for the document date.
    2. Check Exchange Rate Type:

      • Confirm which exchange rate type is used in the pricing procedure or document.
      • Maintain the exchange rate for that type in OB08.
    3. Check Document Date:

      • Ensure the document date or posting date falls within the validity period of the exchange rate.
    4. Currency Conversion Settings:

      • Verify currency conversion settings in IMG under: SPRO -> SAP Reference IMG -> Financial Accounting -> Financial Accounting Global Settings -> Currencies -> Check Exchange Rate Types
      • Ensure the correct exchange rate type is assigned and active.
    5. Re-run the transaction:

      • After maintaining the exchange rates, retry the billing or pricing transaction.

    Additional Information:

    • Exchange rates are critical for converting amounts in SD billing documents, FI postings, and other financial transactions.
    • Exchange rates can be maintained manually or imported via interfaces (e.g., from external rate providers).
    • If the system uses multiple exchange rate types, ensure consistency across all relevant types.
    • Sometimes, customizing in pricing procedures or condition records may specify a particular exchange rate type; verify these settings.

    Summary:

    Aspect Details
    Error Message VF_PRC_CPF010 Currency conversion: missing exchange rates/factors between &1 and &2
    Cause Missing or invalid exchange rate between the two currencies for the document date and exchange rate type
