• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAML2_CONFIG_UI009 - All logon formats have already been added ?

  The SAP error message SAML2_CONFIG_UI009 indicates that all logon formats have already been added in the SAML2 configuration. This typically occurs when you are trying to add a new logon format to the SAML2 configuration in the SAP system, but the maximum number of logon formats has already been reached.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the limitation in the number of logon formats that can be configured in the SAML2 settings. Each logon format corresponds to a specific authentication method or identity provider configuration, and if the maximum number has been reached, you cannot add any more.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Existing Logon Formats:
  
  Go to the SAML2 configuration in your SAP system (transaction code SAML2).
  Check the existing logon formats that have already been configured.
  
  
  
  Remove Unused Logon Formats:
  
  If there are any logon formats that are no longer needed or used, you can delete them to free up space for new configurations.
  To delete a logon format, select the format you want to remove and use the delete option.
  
  
  
  Modify Existing Logon Formats:
  
  If you need to change the configuration of an existing logon format instead of adding a new one, consider modifying the existing logon format to meet your requirements.
  
  
  
  Check Documentation:
  
  Review the SAP documentation for SAML2 configuration to understand the limitations and best practices for managing logon formats.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Support:
  
  If you are unsure about which logon formats can be removed or if you encounter further issues, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
