• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CP047 - No authorization to create task list type & ?

  The SAP error message CP047 ("No authorization to create task list type &") typically occurs when a user attempts to create a task list in the SAP system but lacks the necessary authorizations to perform that action. This error is related to the authorization objects that control access to various functionalities within SAP, particularly in the area of production planning and control.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorizations assigned to their user profile for creating the specific type of task list.
  Authorization Object: The relevant authorization object for task list creation (e.g., C_TPLK for task lists) may not be included in the user's role.
  Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations for task list management.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 to display the user profile and check the roles assigned to the user.
  Ensure that the user has roles that include the necessary authorizations for creating task lists.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the required authorizations, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations.
  The relevant authorization object for task list creation should be included in the role. For example, ensure that the C_TPLK object is properly configured.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Attempt to create the task list again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
