• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FMCA_PSOB122 - Authorization type &1 does not give you authorization to display ?

  The SAP error message FMCA_PSOB122 indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to display a specific object or transaction. This error typically arises in the context of financial management or controlling modules, where specific authorizations are required to view certain data.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by insufficient authorization for the user role or profile assigned to the user. The authorization type specified (denoted by &1 in the error message) is not granted to the user, preventing them from accessing the requested information.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user’s profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction PFCG. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations for the transaction or object the user is trying to access.
  If the required authorization is missing, you may need to modify the role or create a new one that includes the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorizations:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can adjust the authorization objects in the role to include the missing authorizations.
  If you do not have the necessary permissions, contact your SAP security administrator or the person responsible for user authorizations in your organization.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the transaction again to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: In SAP, authorizations are managed through authorization objects, which define the permissions for various activities. Common authorization objects related to financial transactions include F_BKPF_BES (for document management) and F_LFA1_APL (for vendor master data).
  Role Maintenance: Regularly review and maintain user roles to ensure that users have the appropriate access based on their job functions.
  Audit and Compliance: Ensure that authorization changes are documented and comply with your organization’s security policies to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive data.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, further investigation may be required, potentially involving SAP support or consulting services.
