• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACM_SYNTAX057 - @MappingRole is different from the inherited DCL &1 ?

  The SAP error message ACM_SYNTAX057 indicates that there is a mismatch between the mapping role defined in a Data Control Language (DCL) and the inherited mapping role from a parent DCL. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's Authorization Management, particularly when dealing with DCLs and their associated mapping roles.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Mapping Roles: The mapping role specified in the current DCL does not match the mapping role defined in the parent DCL. This inconsistency can occur if the DCLs are not properly aligned or if changes were made to one DCL without corresponding updates to the other.
  Inheritance Issues: If the DCL is inheriting properties from another DCL, any changes in the parent DCL's mapping role will affect the child DCL. If the child DCL has a different mapping role, this error will be triggered.
  Configuration Errors: There may be configuration errors in the DCL setup, leading to discrepancies in the mapping roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review DCL Configuration: Check the configuration of both the parent and child DCLs. Ensure that the mapping roles are consistent across both DCLs.
  Update Mapping Roles: If the child DCL has a different mapping role, update it to match the inherited mapping role from the parent DCL. This can usually be done in the SAP GUI or through the relevant transaction codes for managing DCLs.
  Recheck Inheritance: Ensure that the inheritance settings are correctly configured. If the child DCL is supposed to inherit the mapping role, make sure that it is set up to do so.
  Testing: After making the necessary changes, test the DCL to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the authorization checks are functioning as expected.
