Check Customer Master if Exchange rate type M is maintained & also check in OVA8 if the currency conversion rate is maintained. Currency conversion rate is normally maintained by FI people.

If I double click on the error"maintain conversion factors for EUR/INR", then iam getting one message. that is no conversion factor is maintained forfor the currency pair or there is no valid entry for 02.03.2008.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

As suggested earlier, this is an FI concern, as the conversion ratio is maintained by HI people. I suppose it is through OVA8, but not very sure on the same. You should ask your FI consultant to resolve this error.

and 1 more thing, when iam tring to raise the sales order only with the third party item(BANS)(and i created material with material type Trading goods(HAWA)), then only iam getting this error. if i will take FInished product(NORM), then iam not getting this error.

[Former Member · Accepted solution]

I suppose this query requires input from MM consultant, if Material type has some controls.

Dear sukumar

Go to ob08, select Exchange Rate Type "M" and maintain currency EUR in "From" tab and INR in "To" tab.

hello, friend.

also try to get FI involved in this. most likely conversion rates have to be maintained in OB08.
