    Solution

      • Ensure that the correct exchange rate type is assigned in the pricing procedure.

      • Check if the currency in the condition record matches the expected currency.
      • Adjust or recreate condition records if necessary.

      • Verify the currency settings in customer master (XD03/VD03) and material master (MM03).
      • Ensure consistency in currency usage.
    5. Debug or Trace Pricing:

      • Use transaction VK12 or VA02 and check pricing details.
      • Use pricing analysis (F8 in VA02) to trace how the system calculates prices and currency conversions.
    6. Consult SAP Notes:

      • Search SAP Support Portal for notes related to message VH778 for any known bugs or patches.
