• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5@084 - Authorization &2 for object &1 does not exist ?

  The SAP error message "5@084 Authorization &2 for object &1 does not exist" indicates that a user is trying to perform an action for which they do not have the necessary authorization. This error typically arises when the user’s role or profile does not include the required authorization for a specific object.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization for the specified object (e.g., a transaction, report, or data access).
  Incorrect Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned the correct role that includes the necessary authorizations.
  Authorization Object Configuration: The authorization object may not be properly configured in the system.
  Profile Issues: The user’s profile may not be updated or may not include the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that the necessary roles that include the required authorizations are assigned.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify the missing authorization.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SUIM (User Information System) to analyze user authorizations and roles.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorization is missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations.
  Use transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to create or modify roles and assign the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Transport Changes:
  
  If changes are made to roles or authorizations, ensure that they are transported to the relevant systems (e.g., from development to production) if applicable.
  
  
  
  Consult Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, consult your SAP security team or administrator to resolve the authorization issue.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: These are used in SAP to control access to various transactions and data. Each object has fields that define the specific authorizations required.

  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  SU53: Display Authorization Check
