Cause

There could be multiple reasons for this problem. Check the below mentioned points, you should be able to identify the problem

Resolution

  1. Check the user (Integration user on ERP) has the correct roles(SAP_SD_COD_INTEGRATION or SAP_SD_COD_INTEGRATION_EXT) assigned.
  2. Check for the user validity if it is expired.
  3. Ensure that the integration user is not locked.
  4. Ensure that the password defined for the integration user in CPI/PI is correctly defined.
  5. Ensure that the CPI client certificate is mapped to the integration user in ERP/CRM/S4H.
  6. In ERP/CRM/S4H , go to tcode SM30 , open the table VUSREXTID => DN => the filed "min" has either an empty value or is filled with a date(date when the certificate is valid from).
  7. Ensure that the icm parameters(icm/HTTPS/trust_client_with_subject and icm/HTTPS/trust_client_with_issuer) are maintained(SMICM => GoTo => Parameters => Display)


Note : Incase the issue still persists after all the above confiuration is in place, we would ask you to create an case from One Support Launchpad to component LOD-HCI.
Clearly mention that the problem is in CPI/PI while sending data from C4C to your On-Premise system.
