FI exchange rate

Exchange rate not maintained

Posting or valuation fails because SAP cannot find an exchange rate for the currency pair, rate type and date.

Quick answer

Most likely cause
No rate exists for the required date/rate type.
Check first
Document currency, local currency, exchange-rate type and translation date.
First resolution step
Confirm the required rate date and rate type.

Likely root causes

  1. No rate exists for the required date/rate type.
  2. The document uses an unexpected exchange-rate type or translation date.
  3. Currency pair direction or quotation setup differs from the source assumption.

What to inspect

  1. Document currency, local currency, exchange-rate type and translation date.
  2. OB08 — available rates for the relevant date.
  3. Currency quotation/factor settings and any interface-supplied exchange rate.

Resolution path

  1. Confirm the required rate date and rate type.
  2. Maintain/import the missing approved exchange rate or correct the document date/rate type.
  3. Do not enter an arbitrary manual rate to bypass policy.
  4. Recalculate and verify the local-currency amounts before posting.
