• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VG014 - ISO currency key & is not assigned (header). ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message VG014: "ISO currency key & is not assigned (header)":
  
  Error Message
  VG014: ISO currency key & is not assigned (header)
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the ISO currency key required for the document header is not assigned or maintained in the system. In SAP, ISO currency keys are used to standardize currency codes according to the ISO 4217 standard (e.g., USD for US Dollar, EUR for Euro).
  The system expects an ISO currency key to be assigned to the currency used in the document header, but it cannot find this assignment. This typically happens when:
  
  The currency used in the document does not have an ISO currency key assigned in the system.
  The currency master data is incomplete or missing the ISO currency key.
  Custom or non-standard currencies are used without proper ISO key assignment.
  Configuration or master data inconsistencies in currency settings.
  
  
  Where It Occurs
  
  During document posting or processing in modules like SD (Sales and Distribution), MM (Materials Management), FI (Financial Accounting), or others where currency is involved.
  Specifically, when the system tries to validate the currency key in the document header.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error VG014, you need to assign the correct ISO currency key to the currency in question.
  Steps:
  
  
  Check the Currency Master Data:
  
  Transaction: OB08 (Currency Exchange Rates) or TCURC (Currency Codes)
  Verify if the currency used in the document has an ISO currency key assigned.
  
  
  
  Assign ISO Currency Key:
  
  Use transaction TCURC to maintain currency codes.
  Find the currency causing the issue.
  Assign the correct ISO currency key (3-letter code as per ISO 4217) to the currency.
  
  
  
  Verify Currency Settings:
  
  Check if the currency is active and properly configured.
  If it is a custom currency, ensure it has a valid ISO key assigned.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Document:
  
  After assigning the ISO currency key, retry the transaction or document posting.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  ISO Currency Key: This is a 3-character code defined by ISO 4217 standard (e.g., USD, EUR, JPY).
  Transaction TCURC: Used to maintain currency codes and their ISO keys.
  Transaction OB08: Used to maintain exchange rates and can also be used to check currency codes.
  If you are using a custom currency (not standard SAP currency), you must ensure it has a valid ISO currency key assigned.
  This error is a data consistency issue and does not usually indicate a system bug.
