• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SMB/RUNTIME_CORE124 - Client dependent fields are not supported. ?

  The SAP error message /SMB/RUNTIME_CORE124 Client dependent fields are not supported typically occurs in the context of SAP Business One or other SAP applications when there is an attempt to use client-dependent fields in a context where they are not supported. Client-dependent fields are those that vary based on the client (or company) in a multi-client environment.
  Cause:
  
  
  Client Dependency: The error arises when a field that is defined as client-dependent is being accessed or manipulated in a way that does not support client dependency. This can happen in scenarios such as:
  
  Trying to perform operations on client-dependent fields in a global context.
  Using client-dependent fields in reports, queries, or data processing where only client-independent fields are allowed.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the SAP system that do not allow for the use of client-dependent fields in certain operations.
  
  
  Programming Errors: If custom code (e.g., ABAP programs, user exits, or enhancements) is written incorrectly, it may inadvertently try to access client-dependent fields inappropriately.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Review Field Usage: Check the context in which the client-dependent fields are being used. Ensure that they are only accessed in contexts that support client-dependent fields.
  
  
  Modify Queries/Reports: If the error occurs in a report or query, modify it to ensure that it does not include client-dependent fields unless it is specifically designed to handle them.
  
  
  Check Custom Code: If you have custom developments, review the code to ensure that it correctly handles client-dependent fields. You may need to add checks or modify logic to avoid accessing these fields in unsupported contexts.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for guidance on how to properly handle client-dependent fields in your specific version of SAP.
  
  
  SAP Notes and Support: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this issue. If the problem persists, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Client-Dependent vs. Client-Independent Fields: Understanding the difference between these two types of fields is crucial. Client-dependent fields are specific to a particular client (company), while client-independent fields are shared across all clients.
  Multi-Client Environment: Familiarize yourself with how SAP handles multi-client environments, as this can impact how data is accessed and manipulated.
  SAP Community and Forums: Engaging with the SAP community through forums can provide insights and solutions from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a suitable solution.
