  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /OSP/A_MSG136 - No roles assigned to user &1 ?

    The SAP error message /OSP/A_MSG136 No roles assigned to user &1 indicates that the user specified (represented by &1) does not have any roles assigned to them in the SAP system. This can prevent the user from accessing certain functionalities or transactions within the system.

    Cause:

    1. No Roles Assigned: The user has not been assigned any roles in the system, which are necessary for accessing specific transactions or functionalities.
    2. Role Deactivation: The roles that were previously assigned to the user may have been deactivated or removed.
    3. User Profile Issues: There may be issues with the user profile or user master record that prevent roles from being assigned or recognized.
    4. Authorization Issues: There could be authorization issues that prevent the assignment of roles to the user.

    Solution:

    1. Assign Roles:

      • Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance).
      • Enter the user ID that is causing the error.
      • Navigate to the "Roles" tab.
      • Assign the necessary roles to the user. Ensure that the roles provide the required authorizations for the tasks the user needs to perform.
    2. Check Role Assignment:

      • If the user should already have roles assigned, check if the roles are still active and correctly assigned.
      • Use transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to review the roles and their authorizations.
    3. User Profile Review:

      • Ensure that the user profile is correctly set up and that there are no inconsistencies in the user master data.
      • Check for any missing parameters or settings that might affect role assignment.
    4. Authorization Checks:

      • If you are unable to assign roles due to authorization issues, consult with your SAP security administrator to resolve any underlying authorization problems.
    5. Transport Issues:

      • If roles were recently transported from another system, ensure that the transport was successful and that the roles are available in the target system.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
      • SUIM: User Information System (to check user roles and authorizations)
