  Common scenarios include:

  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Currency Code:
  
  Verify the currency code entered in the transaction or master data.
  Ensure it is a valid ISO currency code.
  
  
  
  Maintain the Currency in SAP:
  
  Use transaction code OB08 or TCURC to check if the currency exists.
  If the currency does not exist, create it in the system:

  Add the missing currency code with the appropriate description and settings.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check Master Data:

  Use transaction OBY6 to check company code settings.
  
  
  
  Transport and System Consistency:
  
  If the currency was recently added in a development system, ensure it has been transported to the production system.
  Check for inconsistencies between systems.
