• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /EACC/MSG_ACSYST018 - You have no display/maintenance authorization ?

  The SAP error message /EACC/MSG_ACSYST018 indicates that a user does not have the necessary display or maintenance authorization to access a particular function or transaction within the SAP system. This error typically arises in scenarios where a user attempts to access data or perform actions for which they lack the required permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user’s role or profile does not include the necessary authorizations for the specific transaction or data object they are trying to access.
  Missing Authorization Objects: The relevant authorization objects that govern access to the transaction or data may not be assigned to the user’s role.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be properly configured to include the necessary permissions.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 to analyze the last authorization check. This transaction will show which authorization objects were checked and which ones failed. This can help identify what is missing.
  Modify Roles: If the necessary authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles using transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance). Add the required authorization objects to the role and generate the profile.
  Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
  Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
