CF171 - Details

  • The SAP error message CF171 indicates that a user is attempting to change Production Resources/Tools (PRTs) but does not have the necessary authorization to do so. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization groups are used to control access to certain objects or transactions.
    
    Cause: The error occurs due to the following reasons: Authorization Group Restrictions: The PRTs are assigned to a specific authorization group, and the user does not have the required authorization to make changes to PRTs in that group. User Role Configuration: The user's role may not include the necessary permissions to modify PRTs. Missing Authorization Object: The relevant authorization object (e.g., C_PRTP for PRTs) may not be included in the user's profile.
    Solution: To resolve the CF171 error, you can take the following steps: 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. Review
