• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BCV/AUT104 - Authorization holders removed ?

  The SAP error message /BCV/AUT104 Authorization holders removed typically indicates that there has been a change in the authorization status of a user or a group of users in the SAP system. This message is often related to the Business Configuration Validation (BCV) process, which is used to ensure that users have the necessary authorizations to perform specific actions within the system.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Changes: The error may occur if a user's authorization profile has been modified or if they have been removed from a role that grants them access to certain transactions or data.
  Role Deactivation: If a role that contains the necessary authorizations has been deactivated or removed, users associated with that role will lose their access.
  User Status Changes: Changes in user status (e.g., user being locked or deactivated) can also lead to this error.
  Transport Issues: If there are transport requests that have not been properly imported, it may lead to inconsistencies in authorization assignments.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Authorizations: Verify the authorization profiles assigned to the affected user(s). You can do this using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) to check the roles and profiles assigned to the user.
  Role Assignment: If the user has been removed from a necessary role, reassign the appropriate role that contains the required authorizations.
  Review Changes: If there have been recent changes to roles or authorizations, review those changes to ensure that they are correct and that users still have the necessary access.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like PFCG (Role Maintenance) to manage roles and authorizations effectively.
  Authorization Trace: Use transaction SU53 to analyze the last authorization check for the user. This can help identify which specific authorization is missing.
  Consult Security Team: If you are not authorized to make changes, consult your SAP security team or administrator to resolve the issue.
