• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UJB_EXCEPTION112 - BPF: User &1 is not an owner of instance &2 ?

  The SAP error message UJB_EXCEPTION112 with the description "BPF: User &1 is not an owner of instance &2" typically occurs in the context of Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC) when a user attempts to access or modify a planning instance (like a task or a data entry) that they do not own. This is a security feature designed to ensure that only authorized users can make changes to specific instances.
  Cause:
  
  Ownership Restrictions: The user trying to access the instance does not have ownership rights for that particular instance. In BPC, instances (like tasks or data entries) are often owned by specific users or roles.
  User Role Configuration: The user may not have the necessary roles or permissions assigned to them in the BPC system.
  Instance Locking: The instance may be locked by another user, preventing access by others.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Ownership: Verify who the owner of the instance is. You can do this by checking the instance properties in the BPC system. If the user needs access, they may need to request ownership from the current owner.
  Change Ownership: If appropriate, an administrator can change the ownership of the instance to the user who needs access.
  Role and Permission Review: Ensure that the user has the correct roles and permissions assigned. This may involve checking the user’s profile in the BPC system and ensuring they have the necessary access rights.
  Contact Administrator: If the user believes they should have access, they should contact their system administrator for assistance. The administrator can review the user’s permissions and the instance ownership.
  Instance Status: Check if the instance is in a status that allows access. If it is locked or in a state that prevents editing, the user may need to wait until it is available.
  
  Related Information:
  
  BPC Security Model: Understanding the security model of BPC is crucial. It typically involves user roles, ownership, and access rights.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes or documentation that may provide additional context or updates regarding this error message.
  System Logs: Review system logs for any additional error messages or warnings that may provide more context about the issue.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with SAP support or your internal IT team for further troubleshooting.
