• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNVMBTRFC097 - Destination &3 with different user names: &1 <-> &2 ?

  The SAP error message CNVMBTRFC097 indicates a problem with the RFC (Remote Function Call) destination in the context of a data migration or conversion process. Specifically, the error message states that there is a mismatch in user names between two systems or connections. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  The error occurs when there is an attempt to establish an RFC connection between two SAP systems (or between an SAP system and an external system) where the user credentials do not match. The message indicates that the destination system (&3) is being accessed with different user names: &1 (the user in the source system) and &2 (the user in the destination system). This can happen due to:
  
  Different User Configurations: The user configured in the RFC destination does not match the user being used in the calling system.
  Authorization Issues: The user in the destination system may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the required actions.
  Incorrect RFC Destination Settings: The RFC destination may be incorrectly configured, leading to the use of different user credentials.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check RFC Destination Configuration:
  
  Go to transaction SM59 in the SAP GUI.
  Locate the RFC destination that is causing the issue (the one indicated by &3).
  Verify the user credentials configured for this destination. Ensure that the user name and password are correct and that they match the intended user.
  
  
  
  User Consistency:
  
  Ensure that the same user is being used in both systems for the RFC connection. If necessary, update the user in the source system to match the user in the destination system.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Verify that the user in the destination system has the necessary authorizations to perform the required operations. You can check this using transaction SU01 to review user roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Test the RFC Connection:
  
  After making changes, test the RFC connection using the "Connection Test" option in transaction SM59 to ensure that it is working correctly.
  
  
  
  Check for Multiple Logins:
  
  If the same user is logged into both systems, ensure that there are no session conflicts or issues with multiple logins.
