• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RLFW426 - Remove a write/read protection. Number of tables &1. ?

  The SAP error message RLFW426 indicates that there is a write/read protection on a certain number of tables, which is preventing the system from performing the required operation. This error typically arises in scenarios where data needs to be modified or accessed, but the system has restrictions in place to protect the integrity of the data.
  Cause:
  
  
  Write/Read Protection: The tables in question are likely set to be read-only or have some form of write protection enabled. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:
  
  The tables are part of a transport request that is locked.
  The tables are in a state that prevents changes (e.g., during a backup or maintenance).
  User authorizations may not allow modifications to these tables.
  
  
  
  System Configuration: Certain configurations in the SAP system may enforce write/read protection on specific tables to ensure data integrity.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RLFW426 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Table Status:
  
  Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE14 (Database Utility) to check the status of the tables mentioned in the error message.
  Ensure that the tables are not locked or in a read-only state.
  
  
  
  Review Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to modify the tables. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify and adjust user roles if necessary.
  
  
  
  Unlock Transport Requests:
  
  If the tables are part of a transport request, check if the transport is locked. You can use transaction code SE09 or SE10 to manage transport requests.
  
  
  
  Consult Basis Team:
  
  If the issue persists, it may be necessary to involve your SAP Basis team to investigate any underlying system configurations or locks that may be causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Check for Maintenance Activities:
  
  Ensure that there are no ongoing maintenance activities or backups that might be causing the tables to be in a protected state.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
