• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SOAUTH2022 - User &1: No password or password logon disabled ?

  The SAP error message SOAUTH2022 indicates that a user is attempting to log in without a password or that password-based logon is disabled for that user. This error typically arises in the context of authentication issues, particularly when using the SAP system's security features.
  Cause:
  
  No Password Set: The user account does not have a password assigned.
  Password Logon Disabled: The user account is configured to disallow password-based logon. This can happen if the user is set up for other authentication methods (e.g., Single Sign-On, certificate-based authentication).
  User Lockout: The user account may be locked or inactive, preventing any form of logon.
  Profile Settings: The user profile may have restrictions that disable password logon.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Set a Password:
  
  If the user account is supposed to use a password, ensure that a valid password is set. This can be done by an administrator using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Navigate to the user account, and under the "Logon Data" tab, set or reset the password.
  
  
  
  Check User Logon Options:
  
  Verify the user’s logon options in the user profile. If the user is intended to use password logon, ensure that the "Password Logon" option is enabled.
  If the user is meant to use alternative authentication methods, ensure that the correct method is configured.
  
  
  
  Unlock User Account:
  
  If the user account is locked, unlock it using transaction code SU01 or SU10 (for mass changes).
  Check the "Lock" status in the user profile and remove the lock if necessary.
  
  
  
  Review Security Policies:
  
  Check the security policies in place that might restrict password logon. This includes reviewing the profile parameters and any authentication methods configured in the system.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis team for specific configurations related to user authentication and security settings.
