• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS218 - Mapping detail has no corresponding PFCG mapping ?

  The SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS218 indicates that there is a mapping detail in the system that does not have a corresponding entry in the PFCG (Profile Generator) mapping. This typically occurs in the context of authorization management, where the system is trying to find a mapping for a specific authorization object or role but cannot find it.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Role Mapping: The most common cause is that the role or authorization object has not been properly mapped in the PFCG transaction.
  Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the authorization data, possibly due to changes in roles or objects that were not properly updated.
  Transport Issues: If roles or authorizations were transported from one system to another, there may be missing mappings if the transport did not include all necessary components.
  Custom Development: If there are custom developments that rely on specific mappings, and those mappings are not defined, this error can occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Role Mapping:
  
  Go to transaction PFCG and check the roles that are supposed to be mapped. Ensure that the necessary authorization objects are included in the roles.
  If a role is missing, create or adjust the role to include the necessary mappings.
  
  
  
  Update Authorization Data:
  
  Use transaction SU25 to adjust the authorization data. This transaction helps in updating the authorization objects and roles after changes have been made.
  
  
  
  Consistency Check:
  
  Perform a consistency check using transaction SUIM (User Information System) to identify any inconsistencies in the authorization data.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport request to ensure that all necessary roles and authorizations were included. If not, you may need to re-transport the missing components.
  
  
  
  Custom Code Review:
  
  If there are custom developments, review the code to ensure that it is correctly referencing the authorization objects and that the necessary mappings exist.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to authorization management for any specific guidance or updates that may address this issue.
