• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message EU195 - You have no change authorization for the application hierarchy ?

  The SAP error message EU195, which states "You have no change authorization for the application hierarchy," typically occurs when a user attempts to make changes to an application hierarchy (such as a structure or configuration) without having the necessary authorization.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization to modify the application hierarchy. This can be due to missing roles or permissions in their user profile.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary authorizations for the specific transaction or object they are trying to access.
  Hierarchy Locking: The application hierarchy might be locked for changes by another user or process, preventing modifications.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check failure. This will show which specific authorization object is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator should update the user’s roles to include the required authorizations for the application hierarchy.
  Ensure that the roles assigned to the user include the necessary authorization objects, such as S_TCODE for transaction codes and any specific objects related to the application hierarchy.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to change roles or permissions, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the necessary access.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  If the hierarchy is locked, check with other users or processes that might be using it. You can use transaction SM12 to see if there are any locks on the relevant objects.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After changes are made to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new permissions take effect.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that control access to application hierarchies. Common objects include S_HIER (Hierarchy Management) and others specific to the application.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or internal guidelines regarding user roles and authorizations to understand how to properly configure them.
  Transaction Codes: Common transaction codes related to authorization management include:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  PFCG: Role Maintenance
  SU53: Display Authorization Check
  SM12: Display and Delete Locks
  
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the EU195 error and gain the necessary access to modify the application hierarchy.
