The SAP error message
/BA1/F4_IR027 Yield curve &2 in currency &3 contains inconsistent interest rates
typically indicates that there is an issue with the yield curve data in the system. This error arises when the interest rates defined in the yield curve are not consistent with the expected format or logical progression. Here are the potential causes, solutions, and related information for this error:Causes:
- Inconsistent Interest Rates: The interest rates defined in the yield curve may not follow a logical progression (e.g., rates should generally increase or decrease consistently over time).
- Missing Data: There may be missing interest rate entries for certain periods, leading to gaps in the yield curve.
- Incorrect Configuration: The yield curve may not be configured correctly in the system, leading to inconsistencies.
- Data Entry Errors: Manual entry errors when inputting interest rates can lead to inconsistencies.
- Currency Issues: The currency specified may not match the currency of the interest rates defined in the yield curve.
Solutions:
- Review Yield Curve Data: Check the yield curve data for the specified currency and ensure that all interest rates are entered correctly and logically.
- Correct Inconsistencies: Adjust the interest rates to ensure they follow a consistent pattern. For example, if rates are expected to increase, ensure that each subsequent rate is higher than the previous one.
- Fill Missing Entries: If there are missing interest rates for certain periods, add the necessary entries to complete the yield curve.
- Check Configuration: Verify the configuration settings for the yield curve in the SAP system to ensure they are set up correctly.
- Data Validation: Implement validation checks to prevent incorrect data entry in the future.
- Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on setting up yield curves.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
