  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FH111 - You are not authorized to create accounts in company code & ?

    The SAP error message FH111, which states "You are not authorized to create accounts in company code &," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to create accounts in the specified company code. This is a common issue in SAP systems where user roles and authorizations are strictly managed to ensure data integrity and security.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization object for creating accounts in the specified company code.
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate role that includes the necessary permissions for account creation.
    3. Company Code Restrictions: The user may have access to other company codes but not to the one specified in the error message.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles:

      • Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
      • Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that the role includes the necessary authorizations for account creation in the relevant company code.
    2. Review Authorization Objects:

      • The relevant authorization object for account creation is typically F_BKPF_BLA (for general ledger accounts) or F_LFA1_APL (for vendor accounts).
      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for these objects, particularly for the company code in question.
    3. Modify Roles:

      • If the user does not have the required authorizations, a security administrator or SAP Basis consultant should modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the necessary permissions.
      • Use transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance) to manage roles and authorizations.
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
      • Test the account creation process again to confirm that the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check (to analyze authorization issues)
    • Authorization Concepts: Understanding how authorizations work in SAP is crucial. Authorizations are managed through roles, which are collections of authorization objects that define what actions a user can perform.

    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.

    If the issue persists after checking and updating the authorizations, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP security team or SAP support for further assistance.
