• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SR402 - Data can only be displayed in current client ?

  The SAP error message SR402 ("Data can only be displayed in current client") typically occurs when a user attempts to access or display data that is not available in the current client. In SAP, a "client" refers to a self-contained unit with separate master records and its own set of tables. Each client can have different data, and certain transactions or reports are restricted to the data available in the client you are currently logged into.
  Cause:
  
  Client-Specific Data: The data you are trying to access is specific to a different client. This can happen if you are logged into a client that does not have the relevant data or if the data is restricted to a specific client.
  Authorization Issues: Sometimes, the user may not have the necessary authorizations to view data in the current client.
  Incorrect Client: The user may be logged into the wrong client, either due to a manual error or a system configuration issue.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Client: Ensure that you are logged into the correct client where the data exists. You can do this by checking the client number in the SAP GUI.
  Switch Clients: If you are in the wrong client, log out and log back in to the correct client that contains the data you need to access.
  Authorization Check: Verify that you have the necessary authorizations to view the data in the current client. You may need to contact your SAP security administrator to check your user roles and permissions.
  Data Availability: If you are sure you are in the correct client and have the right authorizations, check if the data you are trying to access has been created or is available in that client.
