• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WB2B515 - Expired currency & replaced by currency & ?

  The SAP error message WB2B515 indicates that a currency used in a transaction has expired and has been replaced by another currency. This typically occurs in the context of currency management within SAP, particularly when dealing with foreign currency transactions or when currencies are updated in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Expired Currency: The currency being used in the transaction has a validity period that has ended. This can happen if the currency was set to be valid only for a specific time frame.
  Currency Replacement: The system has a defined replacement currency that should be used instead of the expired currency. This is often set up in the currency configuration settings in SAP.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Currency Validity: Verify the validity dates of the currency in question. You can do this by checking the currency settings in the SAP system (transaction code OB08 for maintaining exchange rates).
  Use Replacement Currency: If the system indicates a replacement currency, you should use that currency for your transaction. Update your transaction to reflect the new currency.
  Update Master Data: If the expired currency is still being used in master data (like customer or vendor records), consider updating those records to use the replacement currency.
  Configuration Review: Review the configuration settings for currencies in your SAP system to ensure that they are set up correctly. This includes checking the currency types and their validity periods.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on handling currency-related issues.
