• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AA073 - No authorization for company code & ?

  The SAP error message AA073 ("No authorization for company code &") typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action related to asset accounting (AA) for a company code for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can happen in various transactions related to asset management, such as creating, changing, or displaying asset master records.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization for the specified company code in their user profile.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the company code in question.
  Authorization Object: The relevant authorization object (e.g., F_BKPF_BES, F_AA_AKT, etc.) may not be properly configured to include the company code.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include access to the required company code.
  Review Authorizations: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator should modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations for the company code.
  Authorization Object Configuration: Ensure that the relevant authorization objects are correctly configured to include the necessary company codes. This can be done in transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the transaction again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
  
  Related Information:
