3011030 - Checkpoints: BPC Data Access in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Symptom

Troubleshooting for data access profile (DAP) in BPC or data access control in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC)

Environment

  • SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 10.1, version for SAP NetWeaver
  • SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 11.0, version for SAP BW/4HANA
  • SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 11.1, version for SAP BW/4HANA
  • SAP Analytics Cloud 

Cause

There are different rules of handling DAP in BPC Consolidation related functions respectively for standard and embedded models.

Resolution

  1. Term:
    1. data access control [DAC - SAC term]
    2. data access profile [DAP - BPC term]
       
  2. BPC Standard [EPM-BPC-NW]
    1. If the user does not have 0BI_ALL authorization, BPC DAP will be triggered. 
    2. Quick win: Test the issue with a user of SAP_ALL/BI_ALL to determine if the issue is a DAP issue.
    3. Go to BPC web client, and check SECURITY setting, make sure the user got right model/rights assigned in Data Access Profile.

  3. BPC Embedded [BPC 10.1 and BPC 11] [BW-PLA-BPC]
    1. If the user does not have 0BI_ALL authorization, BPC DAP will be triggered. 
    2. Quick win: Test the issue with a user of SAP_ALL/BI_ALL to determine if the issue is a DAP issue.
    3. Go to BPC web client, and check SECURITY setting, make sure the user got right model/rights assigned in Data Access Profile.
    4. DAP tables:
      RSBPCE_USER_TEAM
      RSBPCE_DAP_TEAM
      RSBPCE_PROFILE
      RSBPCE_DAP_DIM
    5. 2480201 - BPC authorization objects for BPC Embedded / Optimized for S4HANA
       
  4. SAC [LOD-ANA-PL-PLI]
    1. Check if the SAC user has been given access in the dimension members in SAC
      1. Check if user has access to the model or version: Model and Version Security 
         
      2. Check if the user is given Data Access Control in the Dimension Settings
        1. Setting Data Access Permissions on Dimensions
          Note: from performance point of view, instead of having Data Access Control on the dimension level for all users,
          it is better to use Data Access Control using Authorization concept using Roles, Teams. 
           
        2. Quick Win: Test the issue with a user of BI Admin role to determine if the issue is a DAC issue.
          If a user is assigned the BI Admin role, or is the model owner, that user always has full access to the model,
          regardless of the DAC settings applied to that model.

      3. Check if the user in Roles, Teams if any restrictions are defined. 
         
    2. Check if the BPC user which SAC import connection used to query data has all access to BPC master data.
      1. see 2773902 - SAC Writeback model refresh error when BPC user has limited authorization
         
    3. Error code hints
      1. errorCode":"PLUGIN_EXECUTION_ERROR"
      2. stagingType":"CUBE_MASTER_DATA"
         
  5. BW [BW-BEX-OT-OLAP-AUT]
    1. 177875 - Authorizations for investigation of OLAP problems
    2. Check if the BPC user has access to authorization object RSBPC_ID & RSBPC_APPS...
    3. Check if the BPC user has access to authorization object S_RS_COMP & RSINFOAREA & RSINFOCUBE...
       
  6. To submit a BPC DAP/SAC DAC [BPC Planning model only]issue: Please provide
      1. BPC system ID
      2. BPC Environment/Model 
      3. SAC Tenant Link
      4. SAC Model Link
      5. SAC Story Link
      6. The BPC user used in SAC connection
      7. The SAC user to reproduce the issue
      8. A SAC support user to troubleshoot
