• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CFS_MSG035 - You are not authorized to change Production Order &1. ?

  The SAP error message CFS_MSG035 indicates that a user is not authorized to change a specific production order. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's production planning and control modules, where user authorizations are critical for maintaining data integrity and security.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorization for the user attempting to change the production order. This can happen due to:
  
  
  Missing Authorization Objects: The user may not have the necessary authorization objects assigned to their user profile. In SAP, authorizations are managed through roles and profiles that define what actions a user can perform.
  
  
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include permissions for changing production orders. This could be due to a misconfiguration or oversight during role assignment.
  
  
  Status of the Production Order: The production order may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., completed, closed, or technically completed).
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction code SU01 or PFCG to ensure they have the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles. This can involve adding the required authorization objects related to production order changes (e.g., C_AUFL for production order management).
  
  
  
  Check Production Order Status:
  
  Verify the status of the production order. If it is in a status that does not allow changes, you may need to change the status or consult with a production planner to determine the appropriate action.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, attempt to change the production order again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to production orders include:
  
  C_AUFL - Authorization for production order management.
  C_PROD - Authorization for production planning.
  
  
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU01: User maintenance.
  PFCG: Role maintenance.
  SU53: Display authorization check.
  
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's SAP security policies for detailed information on managing user authorizations.
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to allow the user to change the production order.
