    The SAP error message SPPF_DET034: No archive mode exists typically occurs in the context of SAP Archive Development Kit (ADK) when the system is trying to access or manage archived data, but it cannot find a valid archive mode configuration. This can happen for various reasons, such as missing configuration settings or issues with the archive object.

    Cause

    2. Incorrect Object Settings: The archive object may not be properly configured or may not exist in the system.
    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the archive mode.
    4. Transport Issues: If the archive mode was recently transported from another system, it may not have been properly activated or configured in the target system.

    1. Check Archive Mode Configuration:

      • Go to transaction SARA (Archive Administration).
