• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBFI_BALANCES005 - Company codes have differing local currencies ?

  SAP Error Message:
  WEBFI_BALANCES005: Company codes have differing local currencies
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when you are trying to perform an operation (such as consolidating financial data, running reports, or executing processes in SAP Financial Consolidation or Group Reporting) that requires multiple company codes to have the same local currency, but the selected company codes have different local currencies assigned in their master data.
  In SAP, each company code is assigned a local currency (transaction currency) in the company code configuration (transaction OB22). When processes expect uniform local currency across company codes (for example, in consolidation or intercompany reconciliation), differing local currencies cause this error.
  
  When does it typically occur?
  
  During financial consolidation or group reporting processes.
  When running reports or transactions that aggregate or compare balances across multiple company codes.
  When setting up or executing intercompany reconciliation or balance sheet reporting where uniform currency is expected.
  In SAP S/4HANA Group Reporting or SAP Financial Consolidation tools.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Local Currency
