  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BCV/AUT003 - Result of authorization check: &1 &2 ?

    The SAP error message /BCV/AUT003 Result of authorization check: &1 &2 typically indicates that a user has attempted to perform an action for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This message is part of the authorization check mechanism in SAP, which ensures that users can only access data and perform actions that they are permitted to.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization object or the necessary permissions within that object.
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations.
    3. Authorization Object Configuration: The authorization object may not be configured correctly, or the values assigned to the user may not match the required values for the action they are trying to perform.
    4. Profile Issues: The user’s profile may not include the necessary authorizations due to changes in roles or profiles.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to view the user’s authorizations and roles.
    2. Review Role Assignments:

      • Check if the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations. You can do this in transaction PFCG (Profile Generator).
      • If roles are missing, assign the correct roles to the user.
    3. Modify Authorization Objects:

      • If the user needs additional permissions, you may need to modify the authorization objects in the relevant roles. This should be done carefully, following your organization’s security policies.
    4. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
    5. Testing:

      • After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the action again to confirm that the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the specific authorization objects related to the transaction or action the user is trying to perform.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation or internal guidelines on authorization management to understand how to properly assign and manage user roles and authorizations.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the authorization error and implement a solution to resolve it.
