• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message >4757 - No authorization to be recorded in payment request ?

  The SAP error message "4757 No authorization to be recorded in payment request" typically occurs when a user attempts to create or process a payment request but lacks the necessary authorizations to do so. This error is related to the authorization checks in the SAP system, which are designed to ensure that only users with the appropriate permissions can perform certain actions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations related to payment processing.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific transaction or action they are trying to perform.
  Organizational Level Restrictions: There may be restrictions based on organizational levels (e.g., company code, cost center) that the user is not authorized to access.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or SAP Basis team member should modify the user’s roles to include the required authorization objects.
  Common authorization objects related to payment processing include F_BKPF_BES (Accounting Document) and F_BKPF_BUK (Company Code).
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After updating the authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Test the payment request process again to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Documentation and Training:
  
  Ensure that users are aware of the authorization requirements for processing payment requests.
  Provide training or documentation on how to request additional authorizations if needed.
