I have RHEL for developers installed on my local machine with xfce. When I right-click on any file and select add to archive it says that there is no such program. 7zip and fileroller are installed and if I manually do the same thing in the shell It works, but xfce don't want to.

How to point on correct archivator for xfce menu item?

Go to Settings > Mime Type Editor and filter by archive (zip, rar, etcetra) and bind a program to it.

You have 7za installed, not 7zip. The former is windows only and the latter is CLI.

File-roller is adequate for most operations.
