  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AQV266 - Access not possible ?

    The SAP error message AQV266 ("Access not possible") typically indicates that there is an issue with authorization or access rights related to a specific object or transaction in the SAP system. This error can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to access a report, transaction, or data that the user does not have permission to view or modify.

    Causes:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations assigned to their user profile to access the specific transaction or object.
    2. Role Assignment: The user might not be assigned the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations.
    3. Object-Specific Restrictions: There may be restrictions on specific objects or data that prevent access.
    4. Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration in the authorization management settings could lead to access issues.
    5. User Status: The user account may be locked or inactive, preventing access.

    Solutions:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to display the last authorization check. This will help identify which authorization is missing.
      • Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
    2. Role Assignment:

      • Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the transaction or object they are trying to access.
      • If roles need to be modified, use transaction PFCG to adjust the roles accordingly.
    3. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
    4. Review Object-Specific Settings:

      • Check if there are any specific restrictions on the object or data that the user is trying to access. This may involve reviewing the configuration settings in the relevant modules.
    5. User Account Status:

      • Verify that the user account is active and not locked. This can be checked in transaction SU01.
    6. Testing:

      • After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that may be related to the transaction or data access.
