- The following error is displayed:
Currency missing
Cause
The Currency in a Sales Document such as a Sales Order is determined from the Account Master Data and the Sales Organization and Distribution Channel maintained in the Sales Document.
In the case Down Payment Request created from a Sales Order the Organizational Data is redetermined when the Down Payment Request is created. Therefore, even when the currency was manually maintained in the Sales Order but not in the Account Master Data for the respective Sales Organization and Distribution Channel the error occurs.
Resolution
You have to either maintain the Currency manually in the Sales Document or maintain the Currency in the Account Master Data for the respective Sales Organization and Distribution Channel and do a dummy change on the Sales Unit field to ensure that the changed data is determined in the Sales Document.
You can maintain the Currency in the Account Master Data as follows:
- Go to the Account Management work center.
- Select the Accounts view.
- Open the respective Account .
- Navigate to the Sales Data tab.
- Select the Sales Organization and Distribution Channel which is used in your Sales Document.
- In the Details section maintain a currency in the field Currency.
- Save your changed.
