• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_FIELD_AUTH109 - You are not allowed to remove the assignment for a &1 ?

  The SAP error message CRM_FIELD_AUTH109 typically indicates that a user is attempting to remove an assignment (such as a relationship or a field assignment) for a specific object (denoted by &1 in the message) but does not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action. This is a common issue in SAP CRM systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only perform actions that they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization to remove the assignment for the specified object. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Business Logic Restrictions: Certain business rules or logic may prevent the removal of assignments based on the current status of the object or other related conditions.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured in such a way that certain assignments cannot be removed by users without specific roles or permissions.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system. Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to perform the action they are attempting.
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This can provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, work with your SAP security team to modify the user's roles or add the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Business Logic:

  Testing:
