• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EQ420 - No authorization for processing disconnection document & ?

  The SAP error message EQ420, which states "No authorization for processing disconnection document," typically indicates that the user attempting to process a disconnection document does not have the necessary authorizations assigned to their user profile in the SAP system. This error is common in environments where strict access controls are enforced, particularly in modules related to utilities or service management.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects to perform actions related to disconnection documents.
  Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned the appropriate role that includes the necessary permissions.
  Authorization Profile: The authorization profile assigned to the user may not include the necessary authorizations for the specific transaction or action.
  Organizational Level Restrictions: There may be restrictions based on organizational levels that prevent the user from processing certain documents.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to view the user’s profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Consult with your SAP security team or administrator to review the roles assigned to the user. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects for processing disconnection documents.

  Modify Roles or Create New Roles:
  
  If the necessary authorizations are not present, the security team may need to modify existing roles or create new roles that include the required authorizations.
  Ensure that the roles are properly assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After adjustments are made, have the user log out and log back in to refresh their authorization profile.
  Attempt to process the disconnection document again to verify that the issue is resolved.
