  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 56537 - No authorization for & of posting run & ?

    The SAP error message "56537 No authorization for & of posting run &" typically indicates that a user is attempting to execute a posting run (such as a batch job or financial posting) for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This error is common in financial modules, such as SAP FI (Financial Accounting) or SAP CO (Controlling).

    Cause:

    1. Lack of Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization object to perform the action related to the posting run.
    2. Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the specific posting run or transaction.
    3. Authorization Object: The specific authorization object related to the posting run may not be assigned to the user’s profile.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user’s profile and roles.
    2. Review Role Assignments:

      • Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the posting run.
      • If the user is missing a role, you may need to assign a role that includes the required authorizations.
    3. Modify Authorization Profiles:

      • If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the authorization profiles to include the missing authorizations.
      • This may involve working with your SAP security team or basis team to ensure that the correct authorizations are granted.
    4. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security or basis team to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
    5. Testing:

      • After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
      • Test the posting run again to confirm that the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: In SAP, authorization checks are performed using authorization objects. Common objects related to financial postings include F_BKPF_BES (for document posting) and F_BKPF_AKT (for document approval).
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the authorization issue causing the error message 56537.
