• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SWF_XI_INB_CONF020 - No Authorization to Display Inbound Queue ?

  The SAP error message SWF_XI_INB_CONF020 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display the inbound queue in the SAP system. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Process Integration (PI) or SAP Process Orchestration (PO) when a user attempts to access the inbound queue for monitoring or troubleshooting purposes.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorizations assigned to the user role. The user may not have the necessary permissions to view the inbound queue, which is essential for monitoring the messages being processed by the system.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the user has the correct authorizations. Here are the steps to do that:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Enter the user ID that is encountering the error and click on the "Roles" tab.
  Review the roles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Authorizations:
  
  The user needs to have the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations for monitoring the inbound queue. Common roles that may include these authorizations are:
  
  SAP_BC_XI_MONITOR
  SAP_BC_XI_ADMIN
  
  
  If these roles are not assigned, you may need to add them or create a custom role that includes the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization Objects:
  
  The specific authorization object that controls access to the inbound queue is S_XI_MONITOR. Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions for this object.
  You can check the authorizations for this object in transaction code SU53 after the error occurs, which will show you the missing authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, ask the user to log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
