• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EAMS_UI_MISC036 - You are not authorized to display a notification ?

  The SAP error message EAMS_UI_MISC036 ("You are not authorized to display a notification") typically occurs when a user attempts to access a notification in the SAP system but lacks the necessary authorizations. This can happen in various SAP modules, particularly in the context of Asset Management or Plant Maintenance.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to view the notification. This could be due to missing roles or permissions assigned to the user profile.
  Notification Status: The notification may be in a status that restricts access based on user roles.
  User Profile Configuration: The user profile may not be correctly configured to allow access to certain transactions or data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization object is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction PFCG. Ensure that the necessary roles that include the required authorization objects for displaying notifications are assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorization objects are missing, you may need to modify existing roles or create new ones that include the necessary permissions. Common authorization objects related to notifications include:
  
  I_NTFY (Notification)
  I_TCODE (Transaction Code)
  
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate access level (e.g., display, change) for the notifications.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. Provide them with the details of the error and the transaction you were trying to access.
  
  
  
  Check Notification Status:
  
  Ensure that the notification you are trying to access is not in a status that restricts access. Some statuses may have specific access controls.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Test the access again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
