• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message STATS035 - & is a front-end alias for locked back-end user & in client & ?

  The SAP error message STATS035 typically indicates that a user is trying to access a transaction or perform an action in the SAP system, but the user account is locked. This can happen for various reasons, such as too many failed login attempts, administrative actions, or security policies.
  Cause:
  
  User Lock: The user account is locked in the back-end system (the database or application server).
  Failed Login Attempts: The user may have exceeded the maximum number of allowed failed login attempts.
  Administrative Lock: An administrator may have manually locked the user account for security reasons.
  Client-Specific Lock: The user may be locked in a specific client of the SAP system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Unlock the User Account:
  
  An SAP administrator can unlock the user account using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Enter the user ID and click on the "Lock/Unlock" button to unlock the account.
  
  
  
  Check User Status:
  
  Verify the status of the user account to ensure it is not locked or expired.
  Check for any other restrictions that may be in place.
  
  
  
  Review Security Policies:
  
  Review the security policies regarding user locks and failed login attempts to prevent future occurrences.
  
  
  
  Client-Specific Considerations:
  
  Ensure that the user is not locked in the specific client they are trying to access. If the user is locked in a different client, they may need to be unlocked in that client as well.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  SU10: Mass User Maintenance (to unlock multiple users)
  SU01D: Display User
  
  
  User Locking Policies: Review the system's user locking policies in transaction RZ11 (Profile Parameter Maintenance) to adjust settings related to user locks and failed login attempts.
  Audit Logs: Check the audit logs for any unusual activity that may have led to the user being locked.
  
  Front-End Alias:
  The mention of a "front-end alias" suggests that the user may be accessing the SAP system through a front-end application (like SAP GUI or a web interface) that is linked to a back-end user account. If the back-end user is locked, the front-end alias will also be unable to perform actions until the back-end user account is unlocked.
  Conclusion:
  To resolve the STATS035 error, the user account must be unlocked by an administrator, and it is essential to review the circumstances that led to the lock to prevent future issues. Always ensure that user access is managed according to your organization's security policies.
