  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSEC317 - Checks for entered user are being logged ?

    The SAP error message RSEC317 indicates that checks for the entered user are being logged, which typically relates to issues with user authorizations in the context of SAP's security and authorization management, particularly in the Business Intelligence (BI) or Business Warehouse (BW) environments.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access certain data or transactions. This can happen if the user roles are not properly assigned or if there are missing authorizations in the user's profile.
    2. User Log Settings: The system is configured to log checks for user authorizations, which can lead to this message being displayed if there are discrepancies or issues with the user's access rights.
    3. Data Source Restrictions: The user may be trying to access data sources or reports that are restricted based on their role or profile settings.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Go to transaction code SU01 to check the user’s profile and roles.
      • Ensure that the user has the necessary roles assigned that include the required authorizations for the actions they are trying to perform.
    2. Review Authorization Objects:

      • Use transaction code SU53 to analyze the last authorization check that failed. This will provide insights into which authorization objects are missing.
      • If necessary, adjust the roles or create new authorization objects to grant the required access.
    3. Adjust Logging Settings:

      • If the logging of checks is not needed, you can adjust the settings in the system to reduce the logging level or disable it for certain users or roles. This can be done in the relevant configuration settings for user management.
    4. Consult Security Team:

      • If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult your SAP security team or administrator. They can provide assistance in reviewing and adjusting user roles and authorizations.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
    • Authorization Concepts: Familiarize yourself with SAP's authorization concepts, including roles, profiles, and authorization objects, to better understand how to manage user access.
