• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRM_ORGANIZER130 - The element has been archived ?

  The SAP error message SRM_ORGANIZER130, which states "The element has been archived," typically occurs in the context of SAP Supplier Relationship Management (SRM) when a user attempts to access or manipulate an object (such as a purchase order, contract, or supplier record) that has been archived. Archiving is a process in SAP that moves data that is no longer actively used from the database to an archive storage, which helps improve system performance and manage data volume.
  Cause:
  
  Archiving Process: The specific element (e.g., a purchase order or supplier record) has been archived as part of the data management strategy in your SAP system.
  Accessing Archived Data: Users may attempt to access or modify archived data, which is not possible since archived data is no longer available in the active database.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Archiving Status: Verify if the element you are trying to access has indeed been archived. You can do this by checking the archiving logs or using transaction codes related to archiving (e.g., SARA).
  Access Archived Data: If you need to access the archived data, you may need to use the appropriate transaction or report that allows you to view archived data. In some cases, you may need to restore the data from the archive if it is necessary for your operations.
  Consult with IT/Support: If you are unsure about the archiving policies or need assistance in accessing archived data, consult your SAP Basis team or IT support for guidance.
  Review Archiving Policies: Ensure that the archiving policies in your organization are well-documented and that users are aware of which data can be archived and how to access it if needed.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SARA (Archive Administration) to manage archiving processes.
  Archiving Objects: Understand the specific archiving objects relevant to your SRM implementation, as different objects may have different archiving and retrieval processes.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal documentation for specific procedures related to archiving and accessing archived data.
