• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 65630 - Security class has status "Inactive" ?

  The SAP error message 65630, which states "Security class has status 'Inactive'," typically occurs when a security class (authorization object) in the SAP system is not active. This can prevent users from accessing certain transactions or functionalities that require specific authorizations.
  Cause:
  
  Inactive Security Class: The security class in question has been set to "Inactive" in the system. This can happen due to administrative changes, system upgrades, or intentional deactivation for security reasons.
  Authorization Issues: Users may not have the necessary authorizations assigned to them, or the roles assigned to them may reference an inactive security class.
  Transport Issues: If the security class was transported from another system and not activated in the target system, it may remain inactive.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Activate the Security Class:
  
  Go to transaction code SU21 (Maintain Authorization Objects).
  Search for the specific security class that is inactive.
  Activate the security class by changing its status to "Active."
  
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Use transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance) to check the roles assigned to the user.
  Ensure that the roles reference active security classes and that the necessary authorizations are included.
  
  
  
  Transport Request:
  
  If the security class was transported, ensure that the transport request is correctly imported and activated in the target system.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to analyze the authorization check. This will provide insights into which specific authorizations are missing.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Administrator:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to activate the security class or modify roles, consult with your SAP security administrator or BASIS team for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: These are used in SAP to control access to various transactions and data. Each object can have multiple fields that define the specific authorizations required.
  User Profiles and Roles: In SAP, user access is managed through profiles and roles, which are collections of authorizations. Ensuring that users have the correct roles is crucial for access.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to security classes and authorization management.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the error message 65630 and restore the necessary access for users in the SAP system.
