• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_BUPA_BOL060 - You are not authorized to assign users ?

  The SAP error message CRM_BUPA_BOL060 ("You are not authorized to assign users") typically occurs in the SAP Customer Relationship Management (CRM) module when a user attempts to assign users to a business partner or perform a similar action without having the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The error is primarily caused by insufficient authorization in the user's role or profile. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Objects: The user does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their role.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include permissions for user assignments.
  Business Partner Settings: The business partner settings may restrict certain actions based on the user's role.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If you identify missing authorizations, you may need to modify the user's roles in PFCG to include the necessary authorization objects. Common authorization objects related to business partner assignments include:
  
  B_BUPA_GRP (Business Partner Group)
  B_BUPA_AUTH (Business Partner Authorization)
  
  
  Ensure that the roles include the necessary activities (like create, change, display) for business partner assignments.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help you adjust the roles or provide the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt the action again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
