Environment
SAP Business ByDesign
Reproducing the Issue
- Go to Application and User Management work center.
- Select Business Users view.
- Search for user A and select Edit Access Rights.
- Navigate to Changes tab.
User was locked by another user who doesn't have authorization to Business Users view, and Valid To date was updated in the meantime.
Cause
The validity of a user is derived from the work agreement of the employee to which the user belongs. If an employee is terminated by a HR user, the Valid To date for the corresponding user would be updated based on work agreement. If the Valid To date was provided before the Last Logon Date then the Valid To Date will be set as Last Logon Date, and the user will be locked.
Resolution
You can verify from Change log in Personnel File as below:
- Go to Personnel Administration work center.
- Select Employees view.
- Search for the employee to which the user belongs and select Edit.
- Navigate to Changes tab.
