• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1E219 - No authorization for displaying accounts with authorization type &1 ?

  The SAP error message 1E219 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display accounts with a specific authorization type. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions or when accessing certain account-related data in SAP.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a lack of appropriate authorizations assigned to the user for the specific account or authorization type. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the necessary roles that include the required authorizations.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization object related to the account display may have restrictions that the user does not meet.
  Profile Changes: Changes in user profiles or roles that remove previously granted access can lead to this error.
  Segregation of Duties (SoD): Compliance requirements may restrict access to certain accounts based on the user's role.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what is missing.
  Alternatively, use transaction code SU01 to review the user's roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the account type in question.
  If roles are missing, they need to be assigned by a user with the necessary administrative privileges.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the user needs access to specific accounts, the authorization objects related to those accounts may need to be modified to include the user or their role.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user's authorizations as needed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After changes are made, have the user log out and back in, then attempt to access the account again to verify that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
