• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AREN123 - You do not have display authorization (S_TABU_DIS) ?

  The SAP error message AREN123, which states "You do not have display authorization (S_TABU_DIS)," indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to display the data in the specified table or transaction. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are enforced to ensure that users can only access data they are permitted to see.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user lacks the required authorization object (S_TABU_DIS) for the specific table or transaction they are trying to access.
  Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct role that includes the necessary authorizations.
  Authorization Profile: The authorization profile assigned to the user may not include the required permissions for the specific table.
  Table-Specific Restrictions: There may be restrictions on specific tables that limit access based on user roles or profiles.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user. This can be done by using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) to check the user’s roles.
  Review Authorizations: Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see the last authorization check and identify which authorization is missing.
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorization, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorization object (S_TABU_DIS) for the specific table.
  Authorization Object Configuration: Ensure that the authorization object S_TABU_DIS is correctly configured to allow the user to display the required tables. This includes setting the appropriate values for the fields such as Table Name, Activity (e.g., 03 for display), and other relevant parameters.
  Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
