Reproducing the Issue

  1. Access the configuration Define Currency Settings for Ledgers and Company Codes activity SSCUI 103379 
  2. In the Dialog Structure select the folder "Currency Conversion Settings for Company Codes"
  3. Requirement to change Source Currency Type from 10 to 00 or 00 to 10 
  4. The company code is live in production and contains postings. 

Cause

The change is not possible for a live or productive company code

Resolution

Changing the source currency type for a company code that already has postings in the productive system is not possible.
Making such a change would compromise the consistency of the accounting data, and currency conversions and valuations would become unreliable.
Because of this, it is not possible to perform this change for a live or productive company with postings.
