• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FDT_DSM041 - Authorization check for deletion in managed system failed ?

  The SAP error message FDT_DSM041 indicates that there is an authorization issue when trying to delete a specific object in a managed system. This error typically arises in the context of the SAP Fiori Data Management Tool (FDT) or similar environments where data objects are managed.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to insufficient authorizations for the user attempting to perform the deletion operation. Specifically, the user lacks the necessary permissions to delete the object in the managed system. This can happen for several reasons:
  
  The user role does not include the required authorization objects.
  The user is not assigned to the correct authorization profile.
  The object being deleted is protected by specific authorization checks.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FDT_DSM041 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Verify the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system. You can do this by using transaction code SU01 to check the user profile.
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete the specific object. This may involve checking for specific authorization objects related to deletion operations.
  
  
  
  Assign Required Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, assign the appropriate roles that include the required authorizations for deletion. This may involve working with your SAP security team to ensure the user has the correct access.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Identify the specific authorization objects that are required for the deletion operation. Common authorization objects that may be relevant include:
  
  S_DATASET (Authorization for file access)
  S_TABU_DIS (Table access)
  S_USER_AUTH (User authorizations)
  
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions for these objects.
  
  
  
  Test the Deletion:
  
  After making the necessary changes to the user’s authorizations, attempt the deletion operation again to see if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Documentation:
  
  If the issue persists, consult SAP documentation or support for further guidance on the specific authorization requirements for the operation you are trying to perform.
