• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AUTHORITY066 - Selection &1: YOu have display authoization for all CVCs ?

  The SAP error message AUTHORITY066 typically indicates that a user is attempting to access a selection of data (in this case, a characteristic value combination or CVC) for which they do not have the necessary authorization. The message specifically states that the user has display authorization for all CVCs, but the selection criteria used in the transaction or report exceeds the user's authorization.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Restrictions: The user has been granted display authorization for all CVCs, but the selection criteria used in the transaction or report may be too broad or specific, leading to a situation where the user is trying to access data that is not permitted under their current authorization profile.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be configured correctly to allow access to the specific data being requested.
  Data Segmentation: The data may be segmented in such a way that the user is not authorized to view certain segments, even if they have general display authorization.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review User Authorizations: Check the user's authorization profile to ensure that they have the necessary permissions to access the specific data they are trying to view. This can be done using transaction codes like SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  Adjust Selection Criteria: If possible, modify the selection criteria to ensure that it falls within the authorized range for the user. This may involve narrowing down the selection to specific CVCs that the user is allowed to view.
  Role Adjustment: If the user requires access to a broader range of data, consider adjusting their roles or creating a new role that includes the necessary authorizations for the required CVCs.
  Consult with Security Team: If you are unsure about how to adjust authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure that the changes comply with your organization’s security policies.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SU53 (to analyze authorization failures) and SUIM (to check user information).
  Authorization Objects: Understand the relevant authorization objects that control access to CVCs, such as S_TCODE, S_USER_AUTH, and any specific objects related to the application area you are working with.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the AUTHORITY066 error and ensure that the user has the appropriate access to the required data.
