• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAML2_CONFIG_UI006 - All service providers have already been added ?

  The SAP error message SAML2_CONFIG_UI006 indicates that you are trying to add a service provider (SP) in the SAML 2.0 configuration, but all available service providers have already been added. This typically occurs in the context of configuring Single Sign-On (SSO) using SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) in an SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error arises when you attempt to add a new service provider to the SAML 2.0 configuration, but the system has reached its limit for the number of service providers that can be configured. This could be due to:
  
  All slots for service providers are filled: The system may have a predefined limit on the number of service providers that can be configured.
  Configuration issues: There may be a misconfiguration or misunderstanding of the current service provider setup.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the SAML2_CONFIG_UI006 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Existing Service Providers:
  
  Go to the SAML 2.0 configuration in your SAP system (transaction code SAML2).
  Check the list of currently configured service providers to confirm that all slots are indeed filled.
  
  
  
  Remove Unused Service Providers:
  
  If there are service providers that are no longer in use, consider removing them to free up space for new configurations.
  To remove a service provider, select the service provider from the list and use the delete option.
  
  
  
  Check for Duplicates:
  
  Ensure that you are not trying to add a service provider that already exists in the configuration.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation for SAML 2.0 configuration to understand any limitations or best practices regarding the number of service providers.
  
  
  
  Increase Configuration Limits:
  
  If your system has a hard limit on the number of service providers, consult with your SAP Basis team or SAP support to see if there is a way to increase this limit.
  
  
  
  Check for System Updates:
  
  Ensure that your SAP system is up to date with the latest patches and updates, as there may be fixes or enhancements related to SAML configuration.
