  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCPR644 - BC Set &1: Switch &2 is not active in relevant clients ?

    The SAP error message SCPR644 indicates that a Business Configuration Set (BC Set) is trying to be applied in a client where the corresponding switch is not active. This can occur in various scenarios, particularly when working with configuration settings in SAP systems.

    Cause:

    1. Inactive Switch: The switch specified in the error message is not active in the client where you are trying to apply the BC Set. Switches are used in SAP to control the availability of certain features or configurations.
    2. Client-Specific Settings: The BC Set may be designed to work only in specific clients where the switch is active. If you are in a different client, the settings may not be applicable.
    3. Transport Issues: If the BC Set was transported from another system, it may not have been properly configured in the target system.

    Solution:

    1. Activate the Switch:

      • Go to transaction code SCPR20 (Switch Framework) in the SAP GUI.
      • Check the status of the switch mentioned in the error message.
      • If it is inactive, activate it for the relevant client.
    2. Check Client Settings:

      • Ensure that you are in the correct client where the switch is supposed to be active.
      • If you are in a development or test client, verify that the switch is also active in those environments.
    3. Review BC Set Configuration:

      • Ensure that the BC Set is correctly configured and that it is intended for use in the client you are working in.
      • If necessary, consult the documentation or the person responsible for the configuration to confirm the intended use of the BC Set.
    4. Transport Adjustments:

      • If the BC Set was transported, ensure that all necessary configurations and switches were also transported correctly.
      • You may need to re-transport or adjust the settings in the target system.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SCPR20: To manage switches.
