• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WS310 - Statistics currency of document & missing (no statistical updates) ?

  The SAP error message WS310: Statistics currency of document & missing (no statistical updates) typically occurs during financial or controlling document postings when the system expects a statistical currency to be present or updated but finds it missing.
  
  Cause
  
  
  Missing Statistical Currency in Document:
  
  The document being posted or processed lacks the statistical currency assignment, which is required for statistical postings or updates in controlling (CO) or financial accounting (FI).
  
  
  Configuration Issue:
  
  The controlling area or company code configuration might require statistical currency for certain transactions, but the document does not carry this information.
  
  
  Master Data or Transaction Data Inconsistency:
  
  The cost element, cost center, or other controlling objects involved may be set up to require statistical currency, but the document or transaction does not provide it.
  
  
  Currency Settings in Controlling Area:
  
  The controlling area might be configured to use a statistical currency (e.g., group currency or controlling area currency), but the document currency or posting currency does not match or is missing.
  
  
  
  Explanation
  
  
  Statistical Currency:
  
  In SAP Controlling (CO), statistical currency is used for reporting and analysis purposes without affecting actual financial postings. It is often used to represent values in a group currency or controlling area currency.
  
  
  Statistical Updates:
  
  When a document is posted, SAP updates statistical values in CO if statistical currency is defined and relevant. If the system expects statistical currency but it is missing, it raises this error.
  
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check Controlling Area Currency Settings:
  
  Go to transaction OKKP (Maintain Controlling Area).
  Verify the settings for controlling area currency and statistical currency.
  Ensure that the statistical currency is defined correctly.
  
  
  
  Check Document Currency and Statistical Currency:
  
  Verify the currency fields in the document.
  Ensure that the statistical currency is assigned or derivable from the document.
  
  
  
  Review Cost Element and Cost Object Settings:
  
  Check if the cost elements or cost centers require statistical currency.
  Adjust master data if necessary.
  
  
  
  Adjust Posting or Document Entry:
  
  When posting the document, ensure that the statistical currency is provided or the document is posted in a way that the system can determine the statistical currency.
  
  
  
  Check Customizing for Statistical Updates:
  
  In transaction OKKP or related customizing, check if statistical updates are mandatory.
  If statistical currency is not required, adjust the settings to avoid mandatory statistical currency.
  
  
  
  Debug or Analyze the Posting Program:
  
  If the error persists, debugging the posting program or checking the update rules for statistical currency might be necessary.
