  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSO_CTC034 - Client is not a BW client. Set client: &1 ?

    The SAP error message RSO_CTC034 indicates that the client you are trying to access is not a valid Business Warehouse (BW) client. This error typically occurs when you attempt to execute a BW-related transaction or report in a client that is not configured as a BW client.

    Cause:

    1. Incorrect Client: The client you are logged into is not set up as a BW client. BW clients have specific configurations and settings that differentiate them from standard SAP ERP clients.
    2. Client Configuration: The client may not have the necessary BW components installed or activated.
    3. Transport Issues: If you have recently transported BW objects or configurations, there may be inconsistencies in the client setup.

    Solution:

    1. Check Client Settings:

      • Verify that you are logged into the correct client. BW clients typically have specific number ranges (e.g., 000, 001, etc.) and should be configured for BW usage.
      • You can check the client settings in transaction SCC4 to see if the client is marked as a BW client.
    2. Log into a Valid BW Client:

      • If you are in the wrong client, log out and log into a client that is configured as a BW client.
    3. Client Configuration:

      • If you are an administrator, ensure that the client is properly configured for BW. This may involve checking the installation of BW components and ensuring that the necessary settings are in place.
    4. Transport and Configuration Checks:

      • If you suspect that the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs for any errors or issues that may have occurred during the transport process.
      • Ensure that all necessary BW objects and configurations have been transported correctly.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to client configuration and BW setup for further guidance.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SCC4: To check and configure client settings.
      • RSA1: To access the Data Warehousing Workbench in BW.
    • SAP Notes: Search for relevant SAP Notes in the SAP Support Portal that may address specific issues related to client configuration and BW errors.

    • SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums for additional insights and solutions from other users who may have encountered similar issues.

    If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to reach out to your SAP Basis team or SAP support for further assistance.
