  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message G0343 - Role or user does not exist ?

    The SAP error message G0343, which states "Role or user does not exist," typically occurs when a user attempts to access a role or transaction that is not assigned to them or when the user ID is not recognized in the system. Here are the potential causes, solutions, and related information for this error:

    Causes:

    1. User Not Assigned to Role: The user trying to access a transaction or function does not have the necessary role assigned in their user profile.
    2. Role Not Created or Deactivated: The role that the user is trying to access may not exist or may have been deactivated.
    3. User ID Issues: The user ID may be incorrectly entered or may not exist in the system.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the required authorizations to access the role or transaction.
    5. Profile Issues: The user profile may not be properly configured or may have been changed.

    Solutions:

    1. Check User Assignment:

      • Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
      • Check the roles assigned to the user. If the required role is missing, you will need to assign it.
    2. Verify Role Existence:

      • Use transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to check if the role exists.
      • If the role is missing, it may need to be created or reactivated.
    3. Role Activation:

      • If the role exists but is inactive, you can activate it in transaction PFCG.
    4. Check User ID:

      • Ensure that the user ID is correctly entered and exists in the system. You can verify this in transaction SU01.
    5. Authorization Check:

      • Use transaction SU53 to check for authorization issues after the error occurs. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify missing authorizations.
    6. Profile Maintenance:

      • If there are issues with the user profile, you may need to review and adjust the profile settings in transaction SU01.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
