• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS335 - PFCG mapping has an invalid parent type: &1 ?

  The SAP error message ACMDT_OBJSTATUS335 indicates that there is an issue with the PFCG (Profile Generator) mapping in relation to the object status of a specific authorization object. The message states that the mapping has an invalid parent type, which typically means that the system is trying to reference an object or a parent type that is not valid or does not exist in the current context.
  Cause:
  
  Invalid Object Type: The error may occur if the authorization object being referenced does not have a valid parent type or if the parent type has been deleted or is not correctly defined in the system.
  Configuration Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the configuration of the authorization objects or roles in the PFCG.
  Transport Issues: If the roles or authorization objects were transported from another system, there may be inconsistencies or missing components in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Definition: Verify the definition of the authorization object in transaction SU21. Ensure that the object is correctly defined and that its parent type is valid.
  Review Role Configuration: Go to transaction PFCG and check the roles that are associated with the authorization object. Ensure that the roles are correctly configured and that there are no inconsistencies.
  Recreate Role: If the role is corrupted, consider recreating the role from scratch. This can sometimes resolve issues related to invalid mappings.
  Transport Request: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport request for any missing components or errors. You may need to re-import the transport or manually adjust the configurations.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the objects and roles in question.
