• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EM095 - You are only authorized to display ?

  The SAP error message EM095, which states "You are only authorized to display," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action in SAP for which they do not have the necessary authorization. This is a common issue in SAP systems where user roles and authorizations are strictly managed to ensure data security and integrity.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user’s role does not include the necessary permissions to perform the action they are attempting (e.g., creating, changing, or deleting records).
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may be incorrectly configured or not updated to reflect the user's current responsibilities.
  Transaction Restrictions: Certain transactions may have restrictions based on the user's profile or the organizational structure.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in the SAP system. This can be done by navigating to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and checking the roles assigned to the user.
  Review Authorizations: Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
  Modify Roles: If the user requires additional permissions, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate authority should modify the user’s roles to include the necessary authorizations.
  Testing: After changes are made, have the user log out and back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the action again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
  Documentation: Ensure that any changes made to user roles and authorizations are documented for future reference and compliance.
