  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 42867 - No authorization for export service ?

    The SAP error message "42867 No authorization for export service" typically indicates that a user is attempting to perform an action related to exporting data or services, but they do not have the necessary authorizations to do so. This can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to export data from a report, a transaction, or a service.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their user profile to perform the export operation.
    2. Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the export service.
    3. System Configuration: There may be system-wide settings or restrictions that prevent certain users from performing export operations.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Review the authorization objects related to the export service. Common authorization objects that may be relevant include S_DATA, S_USER_AUTH, or specific objects related to the module you are working with.
    2. Modify User Roles:

      • If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the user’s roles to include the required authorizations. This can be done using transaction code PFCG.
      • If you do not have the necessary permissions, contact your SAP security administrator to request the required authorizations.
    3. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP documentation or help resources related to the specific module or service you are trying to use. This may provide additional context on required authorizations.
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, test the export operation again to ensure that the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that control access to export functionalities in SAP.
