• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FL235 - You are not authorized to display & ?

  The SAP error message FL235, which states "You are not authorized to display &," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to access a specific transaction, report, or object in the SAP system. This can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to view financial documents, reports, or other sensitive data.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to the transaction or report may not include the necessary permissions for the user.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured, or the roles assigned may not be active.
  Transaction-Specific Restrictions: Certain transactions may have additional restrictions based on organizational units, company codes, or other criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify that the user has the correct roles assigned. This can be done by checking the user’s profile in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 (Authorization Check) immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization objects are missing. This will provide insight into what specific permissions are lacking.
  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 request the necessary authorizations.
  Adjust Authorization Profiles: If you have the necessary permissions, you can adjust the authorization profiles using transaction PFCG (Profile Generator) to include the required authorizations.
  Testing: After making changes, test the access again to ensure that the issue is resolved.
