SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: BV - Customer Measurement

• Message number: 105

• Message text: &1 users that are not classified are counted as &2

What causes this issue?

&V1& users were not classified (in production clients).

System Response

The system follows the rules below (in order) when measuring:
For manually classified users, their classification is used
For users that get their authorizations exclusively from a reference
user (no roles, no profiles) and for whom the assigned reference user
is classified, the classification of the reference user is inherited.
For the other users, the system differentiates between users in
production clients and users in non-production clients. The
production status of the client is decisive in making this assignment.
Users in production clients are counted as &V2 (in accordance with
the active price list). The user type TEST is used for users in
non-production clients.

How to fix this error?

Use the system measurement transaction to search for the unclassified
users (Transaction USMM, choose <LS>User list</>) and then classify
them.
When you create new users using the user maintenance transaction
(SU01), you can enter the measurement-relevant data immediately (choose
the "License Data" button or tab page).
You can classify reference users in the system measurement transaction
(USMM) by choosing "Goto -> Reference User Classification"
