  W5075 - Error during translation into local currency in case of requisition & &
  
  Cause:
  This warning message typically occurs during the processing of a purchase requisition when the system attempts to translate amounts from the document currency into the local currency but encounters an issue. The common causes include:
  
  Missing or incorrect exchange rate: The system cannot find a valid exchange rate for the currency pair on the document date.
  Currency settings issue: The local currency or document currency is not properly defined or maintained in the system.
  Date-related issues: The posting date or document date used for exchange rate determination is incorrect or outside the valid range.
  Exchange rate type not maintained: The exchange rate type configured for the translation is missing or not maintained.
  Master data inconsistencies: Vendor or purchasing info record currency settings might be inconsistent.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the W5075 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Exchange Rates:
  
  Go to transaction OB08 (Maintain Exchange Rates).
  Verify that the exchange rate between the document currency and local currency exists for the relevant date.
  If missing, maintain the correct exchange rate.
  
  
  
  Verify Currency Settings:
  
  Check the local currency defined in company code settings (transaction OB22 or SPRO > Financial Accounting > Financial Accounting Global Settings > Company Code > Define Company Code).
  Ensure the document currency is valid and correctly assigned.
  
  
  
  Check Exchange Rate Type:
  
  Confirm the exchange rate type used for translation is maintained and valid.
  This can be checked in OB08 or via configuration paths related to currency translation.
  
  
  
  Review Document Dates:
  
  Ensure the document date or posting date on the requisition is correct and falls within the validity period of the exchange rate.
  
  
  
  Master Data Validation:
  
  Check vendor master and purchasing info records for currency consistency.
  Ensure no conflicting currency data exists.
  
  
  
  Reprocess the Requisition:
  
  After corrections, try to repost or reprocess the requisition.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
