  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CLAIM201 - You are not authorized to display this long text ?

    The SAP error message CLAIM201, which states "You are not authorized to display this long text," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to view specific long text associated with a document or transaction in SAP. This can occur in various modules, such as Materials Management (MM), Sales and Distribution (SD), or others where long texts are used.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user’s role or profile does not include the necessary authorizations to access the long text.
    2. Missing Authorization Objects: The required authorization objects for displaying long texts are not assigned to the user.
    3. Configuration Settings: There may be specific configuration settings in the SAP system that restrict access to certain texts based on user roles.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles: Verify the user’s roles and authorizations in the SAP system. This can be done by using transaction code SU01 to check the user profile.

      • S_TCODE (Transaction Code)
      • S_USER_AUTH (User Authorization)
      • S_TABU_DIS (Table Display Authorization)
    3. Request Additional Authorizations: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, they may need to request additional access from their SAP security administrator or role owner.
    4. Testing: After adjustments are made, test the access again to ensure that the user can now view the long text without encountering the error.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or support for specific details on the authorization objects related to the module in use.
