  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACE066 - You do not have authorization for the combination &1 / &2 / &3 / &4 ?

    The SAP error message ACE066 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization for a specific combination of parameters, which are typically related to organizational elements or data objects in the SAP system. The placeholders &1, &2, &3, and &4 represent specific values that are relevant to the authorization check.

    Cause:

    The error occurs when a user attempts to perform an action or access data for which they lack the appropriate authorization. This can happen due to several reasons:

    1. Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the necessary roles that grant access to the specified combination of parameters.
    2. Incorrect Authorization Objects: The authorization objects associated with the user's roles may not include the required values for the parameters in question.
    3. Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may have access to certain organizational units but not to the specific combination being accessed.
    4. Profile Changes: Changes in user profiles or roles may have inadvertently removed necessary authorizations.

    Solution:

    To resolve the ACE066 error, follow these steps:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to display the last authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed and why.
      • Review the user's roles and authorizations using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
    2. Assign Missing Roles:

      • If the user lacks the necessary roles, assign the appropriate roles that include the required authorizations for the specific combination of parameters.
    3. Modify Authorization Objects:

      • If the roles are correct but the authorization objects do not include the necessary values, you may need to modify the roles in transaction PFCG to include the correct values for the parameters.
    4. Consult with Security Team:

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

      • After making changes, have the user log out and log back in, then attempt the action again to verify that the issue has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: These are used in SAP to control access to various transactions and data. Each object can have multiple fields that define the specific access rights.
    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU53: Display last 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 ACE066 error.
