  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FIGL_MTI000 - You have restricted authorization for selected company codes ?

    The SAP error message FIGL_MTI000, which states "You have restricted authorization for selected company codes," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action in SAP that requires access to certain company codes for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can happen in various modules, particularly in Financial Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO).

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Restrictions: The user’s role or profile does not include the necessary authorizations for the company codes involved in the transaction.
    2. Company Code Assignment: The user may be assigned to specific company codes, and the action they are trying to perform involves company codes outside of their assigned permissions.
    3. Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be configured correctly to include the required company codes.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Review the user’s roles and authorizations using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
    2. Modify User Roles:

      • If the user requires access to additional company codes, the roles assigned to them need to be modified. This can be done by an SAP security administrator.
      • In transaction PFCG, find the relevant role and add the necessary authorizations for the required company codes.
    3. Authorization Object:

      • Check the relevant authorization objects, such as F_BKPF_BES (Accounting Document: Authorization for Company Code) and F_BKPF_BUK (Company Code: Authorization for Company Code).
      • Ensure that the user has the necessary values assigned to these authorization objects.
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user’s roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
      • Test the transaction again to confirm that the error has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific guidance or updates related to this error message. Sometimes, there may be known issues or patches that can help.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation on authorization management to understand how to effectively manage user roles and permissions.
    • Security Audit: Conduct a security audit to ensure that users have the appropriate access levels and that there are no unnecessary permissions granted.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis or Security team for further investigation.
