  Error Message
  WRF_APC301: Supplier currency unknown, price for material &1 is in local currency
  
  Cause
  This error occurs during the Automatic Price Calculation (APC) process in SAP when the system tries to determine the price of a material from a supplier, but the supplier's currency is not maintained or known in the system. As a result, the system defaults to using the local currency for the price, which is not correct for the supplier's pricing conditions.
  In other words:
  
  The system expects a supplier currency to be defined for the vendor or purchasing info record.
  The currency field is either empty or not correctly maintained.
  The price is therefore interpreted in the local currency, which leads to inconsistencies or errors in pricing calculations.
  
  
  Where it typically occurs
  
  During procurement price determination.
  When running price calculations in the Logistics Invoice
