• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS313 - PFCG mapping metadata entry has no corresponding DCL metadata entry ?

  The SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS313 indicates that there is a mismatch between the PFCG (Profile Generator) mapping metadata entry and the DCL (Dynamic Authorization Control) metadata entry. This typically occurs when there is an inconsistency in the authorization objects or roles defined in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Missing DCL Metadata: The error usually arises when a role or authorization object is mapped in PFCG but does not have a corresponding entry in the DCL metadata. This can happen if the DCL was not properly created or if it was deleted or modified without updating the PFCG entries.
  Transport Issues: If roles or DCLs were transported between systems (e.g., from development to production), there may be inconsistencies if the transport did not include all necessary objects.
  System Upgrade or Changes: Changes in the system, such as upgrades or modifications to authorization concepts, can lead to discrepancies between PFCG and DCL entries.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check DCL Entries: Verify that the DCL entries exist for the authorization objects that are causing the error. You can do this by navigating to the DCL configuration in the SAP system.
  Recreate or Adjust DCL: If the DCL entry is missing, you may need to create it or adjust the existing DCL to ensure it corresponds to the PFCG mapping.
  Consistency Check: Use transaction SU25 to perform a consistency check between PFCG and DCL. This transaction can help identify inconsistencies and suggest corrections.
  Transport Management: If the issue arose after a transport, ensure that all related objects were included in the transport request. You may need to re-transport the missing DCL entries.
  Role Maintenance: Open the role in PFCG and check the authorization data. Ensure that all necessary objects are correctly defined and that there are no missing entries.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide guidance on resolving similar issues.
