• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1B_ARCHIVING044 - Object can't be archived due to BADI check (archiving object &1) ?

  The SAP error message 1B_ARCHIVING044 indicates that an object cannot be archived due to a BADI (Business Add-In) check that has failed. This typically occurs when the archiving process encounters a custom implementation that prevents the archiving of certain data objects.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a BADI implementation that has been defined for the specific archiving object (indicated by &1 in the error message). The BADI may contain logic that checks certain conditions before allowing the archiving process to proceed. If the conditions are not met, the archiving process is halted, and this error message is generated.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the BADI Implementation:
  
  Use transaction code SE18 to find the BADI associated with the archiving object. You can look for the BADI name in the documentation or the error message details.
  
  
  
  Review the BADI Logic:
  
  Once you have identified the BADI, use transaction code SE19 to view the implementation. Check the logic in the implementation to understand why it is preventing the archiving.
  
  
  
  Adjust the Logic:
  
  If the logic is too restrictive or if it does not apply to the data you are trying to archive, you may need to modify the BADI implementation. This could involve changing the conditions that are checked or adding exceptions for certain data.
  
  
  
  Test the Changes:
  
  After making changes to the BADI implementation, test the archiving process again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation related to the specific archiving object and the BADI to understand the intended behavior and any prerequisites for archiving.
  
  
  
  Check for Notes:
  
  Search the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this issue. There may be known issues or patches that can help resolve the problem.
  
  
  
  Engage with SAP Support:
  
  If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP Support for assistance. Provide them with the details of the error message and any steps you have already taken.

  Archiving Objects: Each archiving object in SAP has specific criteria and conditions that must be met for successful archiving. Understanding these criteria is crucial for troubleshooting archiving issues.
  BADI (Business Add-In): BADIs are a way to enhance the standard functionality of SAP applications without modifying the original code. They allow for custom logic to be implemented in a controlled manner.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SE18: To view BADI definitions.
  SE19: To view and modify BADI implementations.
  SARA: To access the archiving administration transaction.
  
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to allow the archiving process to proceed.
