• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EAMS_UI_MISC035 - You are not authorized to change a notification ?

  The SAP error message EAMS_UI_MISC035 indicates that a user is not authorized to change a notification in the SAP system. This error typically arises in the context of the SAP Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) module, particularly when dealing with notifications related to maintenance or asset management.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorization for the user attempting to make changes to the notification. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the necessary roles or authorizations to modify notifications.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: Specific authorization objects related to notifications (e.g., I_NTFY for notifications) may not be properly configured for the user.
  Status of the Notification: The notification may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., completed or closed).
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly set up in the system.
  
  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 authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles that include the required authorizations for changing notifications.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Check the relevant authorization objects (e.g., I_NTFY) to ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to change notifications.
  
  
  
  Check Notification Status:
  
  Verify the status of the notification. If it is in a status that does not allow changes, you may need to change the status or create a new notification.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Security Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the required authorizations or how to assign them, consult with your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in, then attempt to change the notification again to see if the issue is resolved.
