• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAMC_TOOLS012 - You are logged onto differnt SAP client than you entered in UI ?

  The SAP error message SAMC_TOOLS012 indicates that there is a mismatch between the SAP client you are currently logged into and the client you specified in the user interface (UI) of the application or tool you are using. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when using SAP GUI, SAP Fiori, or other SAP applications.
  Cause:
  
  Client Mismatch: You are logged into a different SAP client than the one you intended to use. Each SAP system can have multiple clients, and they may have different configurations, data, and authorizations.
  Configuration Error: The application or tool may have been configured to connect to a specific client, and you are accessing it from a different client.
  Session Persistence: If you have multiple sessions open, you might have switched clients in one session while the tool is still referencing the previous client.
  
  Solution:
  
  Log into the Correct Client: Ensure that you log into the SAP client that matches the one specified in the UI. You can do this by logging out of the current session and logging back in with the correct client number.
  Check Configuration Settings: If you are using a specific application or tool, check its configuration settings to ensure that it is set to connect to the correct client.
  Clear Sessions: If you have multiple sessions open, close any unnecessary sessions and ensure that you are only working in the intended client.
  Restart the Application: Sometimes, simply restarting the application or tool can resolve the issue if it was caused by a temporary glitch.
  
  Related Information:
