• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS293 - Role's timestamp differs from the timestamp of the active DCL ?

  The SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS293 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the timestamp of a role and the timestamp of the active Data Control Layer (DCL) in the system. This typically occurs in the context of authorization management, particularly when dealing with role assignments and their associated DCLs.
  Cause:
  
  Role Modification: The role has been modified after the DCL was activated, leading to a mismatch in timestamps.
  DCL Activation: The DCL may have been activated or changed after the role was last updated, causing the timestamps to differ.
  Transport Issues: If roles or DCLs were transported between systems, the timestamps may not align correctly.
  System Configuration: There may be inconsistencies in the system configuration or in the way roles and DCLs are managed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Re-activate the DCL: Go to the transaction code for managing DCLs (e.g., PFCG) and re-activate the DCL associated with the role. This should synchronize the timestamps.
  Check Role Changes: Review any recent changes made to the role and ensure that they are consistent with the DCL. If necessary, revert any changes that may have caused the issue.
  Transport Management: If the issue arose due to transport, ensure that the transport requests are correctly imported and that the DCL and role are in sync across systems.
  Consistency Check: Use transaction codes like SU25 or SUIM to perform a consistency check on roles and authorizations to identify any discrepancies.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to authorization management and DCLs for any specific guidance or patches that may address this issue.
