• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CKAPP003 - You are not authorized to execute the program started ?

  The SAP error message CKAPP003, which states "You are not authorized to execute the program started," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to execute a specific program or transaction in the SAP system. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when trying to run a report, transaction, or custom program.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects or roles that grant access to the program or transaction.
  Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate role that includes the necessary permissions.
  Program Restrictions: The program may have specific restrictions set by the system administrator, limiting who can execute it.
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured, leading to authorization issues.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that the necessary roles that include the required authorizations are assigned.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to display the last authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed and why.
  If you identify missing authorizations, you may need to request them from your SAP security team.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the roles using transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to include the required authorization objects.
  Ensure that the roles are activated after making changes.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Check Program Attributes:
  
  If the program is custom or has specific restrictions, check with the developer or the person responsible for the program to understand any additional restrictions that may be in place.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or internal guidelines regarding user roles and authorizations to understand the structure and requirements in your organization.
