When submitting a LEDES invoice, you may encounter the following error message:

⚠️ Error Message:
Error #b61ded44: Please review your currency fields, there was a problem locating the currency for: .

This is a generic system error. Although it mentions a problem with currency, it is most commonly triggered when the Matter Name listed on the invoice does not match any active Matter in Brightflag.


Why This Error Appears

During submission, Brightflag checks the currency of the invoice against the currency associated with the Matter listed in your LEDES file.

If the system cannot locate the relevant Matter, it cannot complete this currency check — resulting in the error:

"Please review your currency fields, there was a problem locating the currency for: ."


How to Resolve This Error

✅ Step 1: Contact Your Client

Ask your client to confirm the exact Matter Name that should be listed on your invoice.

  • It must be spelt exactly as it appears in Brightflag (case-sensitive).
  • There must be no extra spaces or typos.
  • The Matter must be active and available to your firm in Brightflag.

🧠 Tip: If you're unsure, forward your invoice to the client and ask them to confirm the Matter details or check if you're assigned to it.


✅ Step 2: Take Action Based on Your Client’s Response

Depending on what your client confirms, take the appropriate action:

Client ResponseAction Required
“The Matter Name was incorrect”Update your LEDES file with the correct Matter Name.
“The Matter doesn’t exist in Brightflag”Ask your client to create the Matter in Brightflag.
“The Matter exists, but you're not added”Ask your client to add your firm to the Matter in Brightflag.

Once resolved, reupload your invoice using the updated LEDES file.
