• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LDAPSYNC019 - User &1 was automatically excluded from the synchronization ?

  The SAP error message LDAPSYNC019 indicates that a user was automatically excluded from the synchronization process between SAP and an LDAP directory. This typically occurs during the synchronization of user data, where certain conditions prevent a user from being processed.
  Causes:
  
  User Status: The user may be inactive or locked in the SAP system, which prevents synchronization.
  Missing Attributes: Required attributes for the user may be missing in the LDAP directory or in the SAP user profile.
  Filter Conditions: The synchronization process may have specific filter conditions that the user does not meet.
  Invalid User Data: The user may have invalid or incomplete data that does not comply with the synchronization rules.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the configuration of the LDAP synchronization settings in SAP.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check User Status: Ensure that the user is active and not locked in the SAP system. You can do this by checking the user status in transaction SU01.
  Verify User Attributes: Make sure that all required attributes for the user are present and correctly configured in both the SAP system and the LDAP directory.
  Review Synchronization Filters: Check the synchronization filters set in the configuration to ensure that the user meets the criteria for synchronization.
  Correct User Data: If there are any invalid or incomplete data entries for the user, correct them in the SAP system or the LDAP directory as necessary.
  Configuration Review: Review the LDAP synchronization configuration in SAP (transaction LDAPSYNC) to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no misconfigurations.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like SU01 (User Maintenance), LDAPSYNC (LDAP Synchronization), and SUIM (User Information System) to investigate user details and synchronization settings.
  Logs and Traces: Check the logs for LDAP synchronization (transaction SLG1) to get more detailed information about why the user was excluded.
  SAP Notes: Look for relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to LDAP synchronization and provide patches or updates.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the LDAPSYNC019 error and take appropriate action to resolve it.
