  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSS207 - Service user '&1' is consistent ?

    Certainly! Here's detailed information about the SAP error message WSS207:


    SAP Error Message: WSS207

    Text: Service user '&1' is consistent


    1. Cause

    The message WSS207 indicates that the service user specified (represented by '&1') is already consistent in the system. This typically occurs during operations involving service users in SAP Web Services Security (WSS) or when managing service users in the system.

    In other words, the system is informing you that the service user you are trying to create, update, or check is already in a consistent state — no further action is required or possible because the user is already correctly set up.


    2. When does this occur?

    • When you attempt to create or synchronize a service user that already exists and is consistent.
    • During the import or activation of web service configurations where service users are involved.
    • When running certain SAP Web Service Security (WSS) related transactions or reports that check the consistency of service users.

    3. Solution

    Since the message is informational and indicates that the service user is consistent, no corrective action is usually necessary.

    Recommended steps:

    • Verify the service user: Check if the service user exists and is correctly configured.
    • No duplicate creation: Avoid trying to recreate or re-import the same service user unnecessarily.
    • Proceed with next steps: If this message appears during a process, you can safely continue as the service user is already consistent.
    • Check logs: If you expected a change or update, verify logs or configuration to ensure the intended changes were applied.

    If you are troubleshooting an issue related to service users, ensure that:

    • The service user has the correct roles and authorizations.
    • The user is not locked or expired.
    • The user is assigned to the correct services.

      • SU01 (to manage users)
      • WSADMIN (Web Service Administration)
      • STRUST (for SSL and certificates related to web services)
    • SAP Notes:
      Check SAP Notes related to service user management and Web Service Security for any known issues or updates.

    • Web Service Security:
