• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CHK_SU22016 - Inconsistent authorization defalut, object &1, field &2 ?

  The SAP error message CHK_SU22016 indicates that there is an inconsistency in the authorization default settings for a specific object and field. This typically occurs when the authorization checks for a particular object (like a transaction, program, or report) and its associated fields are not properly defined or are conflicting in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Inconsistent Authorization Settings: The authorization object may have been modified, or the field definitions may not align with the expected values.
  Missing Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations assigned for the specific object or field.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), inconsistencies may arise if the transport did not include all necessary objects or settings.
  Custom Development: Custom programs or enhancements may not have the correct authorization checks implemented.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Authorization Object: Verify the authorization object and its fields in transaction SU21. Ensure that the object is correctly defined and that all necessary fields are included.
  Review User Authorizations: Use transaction SU53 to analyze the authorization checks for the user experiencing the issue. This transaction shows the last failed authorization check and can help identify missing authorizations.
  Adjust Authorizations: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to adjust their roles or profiles in transaction PFCG to include the required authorizations.
  Consistency Check: Run a consistency check for the authorization objects using transaction SUIM to identify any inconsistencies or missing authorizations.
  Transport Review: If the issue arose after a transport, review the transport logs and ensure that all necessary objects were included and correctly imported.
  Custom Code Review: If the error is related to custom development, review the code to ensure that proper authorization checks are implemented.
