  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ESMON003 - No authorization for this action ?

    The SAP error message ESMON003, which states "No authorization for this action," typically indicates that the user attempting to perform a specific action does not have the necessary authorizations or permissions assigned to their user profile. This can occur in various contexts within SAP, such as when trying to access certain transactions, reports, or functions.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects or roles that permit them to perform the action.
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct role that includes the necessary permissions.
    3. Authorization Profile Issues: There may be issues with the authorization profiles assigned to the user.
    4. Changes in Authorization: Recent changes in the authorization roles or profiles may have inadvertently removed necessary permissions.
    5. Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may not have access to certain organizational levels (e.g., company codes, plants) required for the action.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
    2. Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization objects are missing. This transaction provides a detailed view of the last authorization check and can help identify the specific missing authorizations.
    3. Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary access to modify roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security or basis team to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
    4. Testing in a Development Environment: If you are a developer or administrator, you can test the required actions in a development environment to identify the necessary authorizations.
    5. Documentation and Training: Ensure that users are aware of the required authorizations for their roles and provide training if necessary.
