What If My SAP Account Is Locked?

Locked SAP accounts may be due to:

  • Multiple login attempts with the wrong SAP username, password or a combination of both (Note: Before making numerous login attempts, go ahead and reset your password to avoid account becoming locked.
  • SAP account has not been used in 90 days
  • Request by your department due to resignation, inappropriate use, etc.

If your account is locked due to multiple login attempts or non-use within 90 days, you will need to contact the IT Helpdesk at (662) 915- 5222 or helpdesk@olemiss.edu to unlock your SAP GUI account.
