• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC124 - Enter valid currency type: local currency, supplier currency or blank ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_APC124: Enter valid currency type: local currency, supplier currency or blank
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a currency type field in an SAP transaction or process related to Automatic Payment Program (APP) or vendor invoice processing is filled with an invalid or unsupported currency type. The system expects the currency type to be either:
  
  Local currency (usually the company code currency),
  Supplier currency (the currency in which the vendor invoice is issued), or
  Blank (meaning no specific currency type is entered, and the system will use default logic).
  
  If any other value or an incorrect currency type is entered, the system throws this error.
  
  Where it typically occurs:
  
  During vendor invoice entry or payment processing.
  In Automatic Payment Program (APP) configuration or execution.
  When maintaining or processing vendor master data or invoice documents where currency type is relevant.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check the Currency Type Field:
  
  Identify the field where the currency type is entered (e.g., in the invoice document, payment run parameters, or vendor master).
  Ensure that the currency type is either:
  
  Blank (no entry),
  'L' for Local currency,
  'S' for Supplier currency.
  
  
  
  
  
  Correct the Currency Type:
  
  If an invalid currency type is entered, correct it to one of the valid options.
  If the field is mandatory, enter the correct currency type as per business requirements.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration of the Automatic Payment Program (transaction FBZP) or related customizing to ensure currency types are correctly defined and allowed.
  Verify if any custom validations or user exits are enforcing currency type values.
  
  
  
  Check Vendor Master and Invoice Data:
  
  Ensure that the vendor master data currency and the invoice currency are consistent and valid.
  If the invoice currency differs from the local currency, the currency type should be supplier currency ('S').
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes or Support:
  
  If the issue persists, check for relevant SAP Notes or patches.
  Sometimes, this error can be caused by a bug or missing configuration.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  
  Currency Types in SAP:
  
  SAP uses currency types to distinguish between different currencies in financial documents.
  Common currency types:
  
  Local currency (L): The currency of the company code.
  Supplier currency (S): The currency in which the vendor invoice is issued.
  Group currency (G): Currency used for consolidation (less common in this context).
  
  
  Leaving the currency type blank often lets the system default to local currency.
  
  
  
  Transaction Codes to Check:
  
  FB60 / MIRO (Invoice entry)
  FBZP (Automatic Payment Program configuration)
  FK02 (Vendor master change)
  F110 (Payment run)
  
  
  
  Debugging Tips:
  
  Use transaction SE91 to look up the message class and message number for more details.
  Check the program or user exit where the error is triggered to understand the validation logic.
