• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS2HANA_AUTH209 - SAP HANA view exists ?

  The SAP error message RS2HANA_AUTH209 typically indicates an authorization issue related to accessing a specific SAP HANA view. This error can occur when a user attempts to access a HANA view that exists but does not have the necessary permissions to do so.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of the RS2HANA_AUTH209 error is that the user lacks the required authorizations to access the specified HANA view. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Roles: The user does not have the appropriate roles assigned that grant access to the HANA view.
  Object Privileges: The user may not have the necessary object privileges (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE) on the HANA view.
  Schema Privileges: The user may not have access to the schema where the HANA view is located.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RS2HANA_AUTH209 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the correct roles assigned that include access to the HANA view. You can do this by checking the user’s role assignments in the SAP system.
  
  
  
  Grant Object Privileges:
  
  If the user does not have the necessary object privileges, you can grant them using the following SQL command in the HANA database:
  GRANT SELECT ON <schema>.<view_name> TO <user>;
  
  Replace <schema>, <view_name>, and <user> with the appropriate schema name, view name, and user name.
  
  
  
  Grant Schema Privileges:
  
  If the user needs access to the entire schema, you can grant schema privileges:
  GRANT SELECT ON SCHEMA <schema> TO <user>;
  
  
  
  
  Check Authorization Objects:
  
  In the SAP GUI, check the relevant authorization objects (e.g., S_TABU_DIS for table access) to ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles or privileges, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure that the user has the appropriate access.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like SU01 (User Maintenance) to check user roles and authorizations.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may provide additional guidance or updates related to this error.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP HANA documentation for detailed information on managing user privileges and roles.
