  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMCA_DM_EN220 - You donÆt have authorization for object &1 activity &2 ?

    The SAP error message FMCA_DM_EN220 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization for a specific object and activity. This typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action in SAP that requires certain permissions that they do not possess.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorization: The user lacks the required authorization for the specified object (e.g., a transaction, report, or function) and activity (e.g., create, change, display).
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not have the appropriate roles assigned to their user profile that include the necessary authorizations.
    3. Authorization Object Configuration: The authorization object may not be correctly configured in the system, or the user’s profile may not be updated to reflect the necessary permissions.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user. This can be done by navigating to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and checking the roles assigned to the user.
    2. Review Authorizations: Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into which specific object and activity are causing the issue.
    3. Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
    4. Authorization Object: If you have access, check the configuration of the relevant authorization object in transaction SU21 to ensure it is set up correctly.
    5. Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
    • Authorization Objects: Each authorization object has specific fields that define the permissions required for various activities. Understanding these objects is crucial for troubleshooting authorization issues.
    • Security Roles: SAP security roles are collections of authorizations that define what a user can do within the system. Proper role management is essential for maintaining security and compliance.

    If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP security team or refer to SAP support for further assistance.
