• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FARR_RAI150 - Item ID &1: Use originating document only within the same logical system ?

  The SAP error message FARR_RAI150 indicates that there is an issue with the use of an originating document in a different logical system than the one it was created in. This typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting (FI-AA) when trying to process transactions that reference documents from another system.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  You are trying to use an originating document (like an invoice or asset acquisition) that was created in a different logical system (e.g., a different SAP client or instance).
  The system is designed to restrict the use of documents to ensure data integrity and consistency within the same logical system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Logical Systems: Verify that the originating document is indeed from the same logical system. You can do this by checking the document's details in the SAP system.
  
  
  Use the Correct Document: If the document is from a different logical system, you will need to use a document that was created in the same logical system as the one you are currently working in.
  
  
  Data Transfer: If you need to work with data from another logical system, consider transferring the necessary data to the current logical system. This may involve creating a new document in the current system that reflects the necessary information.
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team: If you believe that the document should be accessible across systems (for example, in a landscape with multiple SAP systems), consult with your SAP Basis team to check if there are any configuration settings that need to be adjusted.
  
  
  Review Configuration: Ensure that the configuration for cross-system document handling is set up correctly if your business process requires it.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Logical Systems: In SAP, a logical system is a unique identifier for an SAP system in a landscape. Each system (development, testing, production) has its own logical system.
  Document Flow: Understanding the document flow in Asset Accounting can help in identifying where the issue lies.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional context or solutions.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with SAP support or your internal SAP team for further investigation.
