• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5C747 - Authorization group could not be determined ?

  The SAP error message 5C747: Authorization group could not be determined typically occurs when the system is unable to identify the appropriate authorization group for a particular object or transaction. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to access certain transactions, reports, or when performing specific actions that require authorization checks.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Authorization Group: The object or transaction you are trying to access does not have an associated authorization group defined in the system.
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the authorization objects or roles that are supposed to grant access to the required authorization group.
  User Role Assignment: The user may not have the necessary roles assigned that include the required authorization for the action being attempted.
  Transport Issues: If the authorization group was recently created or modified, it may not have been transported correctly to the system where the error is occurring.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Authorization Group Configuration:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction (e.g., SE93 for transaction codes, SE11 for data dictionary objects) and verify if the authorization group is correctly assigned to the object you are trying to access.
  Ensure that the authorization group is defined in the system.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to check the user profile and ensure that the user has the necessary roles assigned that include the required authorization for the action.
  If roles are missing, assign the appropriate roles to the user.
  
  
  
  Authorization Object Check:
  
  Use transaction code SU21 to check the authorization objects related to the transaction or action you are trying to perform. Ensure that the necessary authorizations are included in the user's roles.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the authorization group was recently created or modified, ensure that the transport request containing the changes has been successfully imported into the target system.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
