• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message OA913 - ArchiveLink: Entries are in another client ?

  The SAP error message OA913 ("ArchiveLink: Entries are in another client") typically occurs when you are trying to access or manage archived documents in ArchiveLink, but the documents you are trying to access are stored in a different client than the one you are currently logged into. This can happen in systems where multiple clients are used, such as development, testing, and production environments.
  Cause:
  
  Client-Specific Data: ArchiveLink stores documents in a client-specific manner. If you attempt to access documents that were archived in a different client, you will encounter this error.
  Incorrect Client Configuration: The configuration of ArchiveLink may not be set up correctly, leading to cross-client access issues.
  User Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access documents in the specified client.
  
  Solution:
  
  Switch Clients: Log into the correct client where the archived documents are stored. You can do this by logging out and selecting the appropriate client during the login process.
  Check ArchiveLink Configuration: Ensure that the ArchiveLink configuration is set up correctly for the client you are working in. This includes checking the ArchiveLink settings in transaction OAC0 (ArchiveLink Administration).
  User Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the documents in the other client. This may involve checking roles and authorizations in transaction PFCG.
  Cross-Client Access: If you need to access documents across clients frequently, consider discussing with your SAP Basis team about the possibility of setting up cross-client access or replicating the necessary documents to the current client.
