• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CC059 - You are not authorized for change number & and activity & ?

  The SAP error message CC059, which states "You are not authorized for change number & and activity &," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action related to a change number in the Change Management module of SAP, but does not have the necessary authorizations to do so.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization to access or modify the specified change number or perform the specified activity.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the change management activities.
  Change Number Status: The change number may be in a status that restricts certain actions, and the user may not have the rights to perform actions on that status.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction code PFCG to ensure that the necessary permissions for change management activities are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations for the change management activities.
  Ensure that the role includes the relevant authorization objects, such as C_CHANGE for change management.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to modify roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Check Change Number Status:
  
  Verify the status of the change number. If it is in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., "Completed" or "Closed"), you may need to change its status or request the appropriate permissions to work with it.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to change management include C_CHANGE and C_CRM_CHNG.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  CC01: Create Change Number
  CC02: Change Change Number
  CC03: Display Change Number
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines for managing authorizations and roles.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the CC059 error and gain the necessary access to perform the required actions related to change numbers in SAP.
