    SAP Error Message:

    WRF_APC_INB153: Conversion of &1 (currency &2) from XI to ERP - failed


    Meaning / Cause:

    This error occurs during the currency conversion process when data is being transferred from SAP XI (Exchange Infrastructure) or SAP PI (Process Integration) to the ERP system. The system attempts to convert an amount from one currency to another but fails.

    Common causes include:

    1. Missing or incorrect exchange rate:
      The system cannot find a valid exchange rate for the currency pair (&2) on the required date.

    2. Invalid or missing currency code:
      The currency code (&2) might not be recognized or maintained in the ERP system.

    3. Incorrect or missing conversion factors/settings:
      The conversion settings or factors in the ERP system might be incomplete or incorrect.

    4. Date-related issues:
      The exchange rate for the specific date (usually the posting or document date) is not maintained.

    5. Integration or mapping issues:
      The data coming from XI/PI might have incorrect currency or amount fields, causing the conversion to fail.


    Solution / How to Fix:

    1. Check Exchange Rates:

      • Go to transaction OB08 (Maintain Exchange Rates) in the ERP system.
      • Verify that the exchange rate for the currency pair (&2) exists for the relevant date.
      • If missing, maintain the correct exchange rate.
    2. Verify Currency Codes:

      • Check if the currency code (&2) is valid and active in the ERP system.
      • Use transaction OB22 or TCURC to verify currency codes.
    3. Check Conversion Settings:

      • Ensure that the currency conversion settings are correctly maintained.
      • Check if the conversion factors and rounding rules are properly set.
    4. Check Date of Conversion:

      • Confirm that the date used for conversion (e.g., posting date) is correct and that exchange rates exist for that date.
    5. Review XI/PI Mapping:

      • Check the interface mapping between XI/PI and ERP.
      • Ensure that currency fields and amounts are correctly mapped and formatted.
    6. Debugging:

      • If the above steps do not resolve the issue, debugging the conversion function module or BAdI used for currency conversion might be necessary.
      • Check for any custom enhancements or user exits that might affect currency conversion.

    Additional Information:

    • Function Modules Involved:
      Currency conversion in SAP ERP often uses function modules like CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT, CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT, or specific currency conversion FM such as CURRENCY_CONVERT_AMOUNT.

    • Related Notes / SAP KBA:
      Search SAP Notes for currency conversion errors or the specific message number for any known issues or patches.

    • Transaction Codes:

      • OB08 - Maintain Exchange Rates
      • OB22 - Maintain Currency Codes
      • TCURC - Currency Codes
      • SMQ1/SMQ2 - For monitoring queues if asynchronous processing is involved
