• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 5W653 - Authorization profile was generated ?

  The SAP error message 5W653 indicates that an authorization profile has been generated, but it may not be assigned correctly or may not have the necessary authorizations for the user trying to perform a specific action. This error typically arises in the context of user authorizations and roles within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Profile Generation: The error suggests that an authorization profile was generated, which may not have been properly assigned to the user or may lack the necessary authorizations.
  Missing Authorizations: The user may not have the required authorizations to perform the action they are attempting.
  Role Assignment Issues: The roles assigned to the user may not include the newly generated profile or may not be updated to reflect the changes.
  Profile Conflicts: There may be conflicts between different profiles assigned to the user, leading to insufficient authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify that the user has the correct roles assigned. You can do this by using transaction code SU01 to check the user’s profile and roles.

  Check for Conflicts: Ensure that there are no conflicting authorizations in the profiles assigned to the user. Sometimes, multiple profiles can lead to authorization issues.
