• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_BI_CONTENT_GEN035 - User &1 or password &2 is not correct. RFC destination cannot be created ?

  The SAP error message ESH_BI_CONTENT_GEN035 indicates that there is an issue with the user credentials being used to create an RFC (Remote Function Call) destination. Specifically, the message states that either the user ID or the password provided is incorrect.
  Cause:
  
  Incorrect User Credentials: The most common cause is that the user ID or password entered is incorrect. This could be due to a typo or the password being changed without updating the relevant configuration.
  User Lockout: The user account may be locked due to multiple failed login attempts.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to create an RFC destination.
  System Configuration: There may be issues with the system configuration that prevent the RFC destination from being created.

  Solution:
  
  Verify Credentials: Double-check the user ID and password being used. Ensure that they are correct and that there are no typos.
  Unlock User Account: If the user account is locked, it may need to be unlocked by an administrator.
