  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WRF_APC562 - Enter a valid currency ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WRF_APC562: Enter a valid currency


    Cause:

    This error occurs when a currency field in an SAP transaction or process requires a valid currency code, but the entered currency is either missing, incorrect, or not recognized by the system. The system expects a standard ISO currency code (e.g., USD, EUR, INR), and if the input does not match any valid currency in the SAP currency table (TCURC), the error is triggered.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Entering a currency code that does not exist in the system.
    • Leaving the currency field blank when it is mandatory.
    • Using a currency code that is not maintained or activated in the system.
    • Data migration or interface errors where currency codes are incorrectly mapped.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Currency Code:

      • Verify that the currency code entered is correct and conforms to the ISO standard.
      • Use transaction OB08 or TCURC to check if the currency code exists in the system.
    2. Maintain Currency Codes:

      • If the currency code is missing, maintain it in the system via OB08 (Exchange Rate Maintenance) or TCURC (Currency Codes).
      • Ensure the currency is active and valid for the company code or transaction.
    3. Correct Data Entry:

      • Ensure that the currency field is not left blank if it is mandatory.
      • Correct any typos or incorrect currency codes in the input.
    4. Check Customizing and Master Data:

      • Verify if the currency is allowed in the relevant company code or business area.
      • Check if the currency is properly assigned in the master data (e.g., vendor/customer master, material master).
    5. Interface/Data Migration:

      • If the error occurs during data upload or interface processing, validate the source data for correct currency codes.
      • Map or convert currency codes properly before posting to SAP.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • OB08 – Maintain Exchange Rates and Currency Codes
      • TCURC – Currency Codes
      • OB22 – Define Currency Types
    • Tables:
      • TCURC – Currency Codes
      • TCURT – Currency Texts
    • Notes and Documentation:
      • SAP Note related to currency validation errors.
      • Check SAP Help Portal for currency configuration and validation.

    Summary:

    The error WRF_APC562 Enter a valid currency is caused by invalid or missing currency codes in the transaction. The solution is to verify and correct the currency code, maintain missing currencies in the system, and ensure proper data entry and configuration.

    If you continue to face issues, check the specific transaction or module documentation for currency handling or consult SAP support with detailed logs.
