SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: SOAUTH2 - OAuth2 Messages

• Message number: 043

• Message text: Password existence check (Auth. S_USER_GRP/03). See SOAUTH2043 longtext.

What causes this issue?

Only password based logon should be allowed for the OAuth 2.0 Client
user. Therefore the system checks if the OAuth 2.0 Client user has a
valid password. Because of this check the administrator requires the
authorization to display the password existence status of another user
(the user of the OAuth 2.0 Client).
The authorization S_USER_GRP with activity 03 is required to display
other user's password status.

System Response

The system reports an error message.

How to fix this error?

Assign authorization S_USER_GRP with activity 03 to the administrator
user.
If the OAuth 2.0 Client user has a user group assigned, the
administrator user must have the authorization S_USER_GRP with ACTVT =
03 and CLASS = <user group of the OAuth 2.0 Client user>.

Procedure for System Administrators

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.
