• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_REP186 - Authorization object key &1, language &2: ?

  The SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_REP186 typically indicates an authorization issue related to the object model in the SAP Enterprise Search (ESH) framework. This error occurs when a user attempts to access a specific object model or repository but lacks the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  The user does not have the required authorization for the specified object model.
  The authorization object key (which may represent a specific object or data set) is not assigned to the user or their role.
  The language specified in the authorization object is not supported or is incorrect.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  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 is missing.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary authorizations for the object model are included.
  
  
  
  Assign Missing Authorizations:
  
  If the required authorization is missing, you may need to assign the appropriate role that includes the necessary authorization objects. This may involve working with your SAP security team to ensure that the user has the correct roles assigned.
  
  
  
  Check Object Model Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the object model is correctly configured in the ESH settings. This includes checking the settings in transaction EHS or EHS_ADMIN to ensure that the object model is active and properly set up.
  
  
  
  Language Settings:
  
  Verify that the language specified in the error message is supported and correctly configured in the system. If the language is not relevant, you may need to adjust the settings or check if the object model supports multiple languages.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific object model and authorization objects to understand any additional requirements or configurations that may be necessary.
