That’s the Transfer Dialog, and it’s there to enter an exchange rate/price when you create a transaction between accounts denominated in different commodities or currencies. If the transactions are indeed simple expenses between say your checking account and an expense account then you’ve managed to create one or the other (probably the expense account or it would happen most of the time) in a foreign currency. You can fix that by editing the account causing the problem and changing the commodity to your local currency.
