• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 57089 - You only have display authorization ?

  The SAP error message 57089, which states "You only have display authorization," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action that requires more than just display permissions in the SAP system. This error is related to authorization issues, meaning that the user does not have the necessary permissions to execute the requested transaction or access certain functionalities.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user role assigned to the individual does not include the necessary authorizations for the action they are trying to perform. This could be due to a lack of specific transaction codes or object authorizations.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may be incorrectly configured, leading to limited access.
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be updated or may not include the required permissions for the specific task.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Review the roles assigned to the user in transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
  Authorization Object Analysis: Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization objects were checked and which ones failed.
  Role Adjustment: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or SAP Basis consultant should adjust the roles or create a new role that includes the required permissions.
  Testing: After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
  Documentation: Ensure that any changes made to user roles are documented for future reference and compliance.
