• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MY111 - Different client, &, in record & ?

  The SAP error message MY111 ("Different client, &, in record &") typically occurs when there is a mismatch in the client information between the data being processed and the client context in which the transaction is being executed.

  Check Client Context: Ensure that you are logged into the correct client where the data resides. You can check the client number in the SAP GUI at the top right corner.
  Data Validation: Verify the records you are trying to process. Make sure they belong to the same client you are currently using.
  Configuration Review: Review any relevant configuration settings that might allow or restrict access to data across clients. This may involve checking authorization settings or client-specific configurations.
  Data Transport: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that the transport was executed correctly and that all necessary data was included.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support notes related to the specific transaction or module you are working with for additional guidance.
