• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message FTR_TREA821 - The last user to make a change to a bank statement cannot release it ?

  The SAP error message FTR_TREA821 indicates that the last user who made changes to a bank statement is not authorized to release it. This typically occurs in the context of bank statement processing in SAP Treasury and Risk Management (TRM) or Financial Accounting (FI).
  Cause:
  
  User Authorization: The user who last modified the bank statement does not have the necessary authorization to release it. In SAP, certain actions require specific roles or permissions, and if the user lacks these, the system will prevent them from performing the action.
  Change History: The system tracks changes made to bank statements, and if the last change was made by a user without the appropriate release rights, it will trigger this error.
  Configuration Settings: There may be specific configuration settings in the system that enforce this rule, ensuring that only users with the right permissions can release bank statements.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Authorizations: Verify the authorizations of the user who last modified the bank statement. Ensure that they have the necessary roles assigned to perform the release action. This can be done by checking the user's role assignments in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  Change the Last Modifier: If possible, have a user with the appropriate authorization make a minor change to the bank statement (e.g., adding a comment) and save it. This will change the last modifier to a user who has the necessary permissions to release the statement.
  Consult with Security Team: If the user needs to have the ability to release bank statements, consult with your SAP security team to adjust their roles and permissions accordingly.
  Review Configuration: If the issue persists, review the configuration settings related to bank statement processing in your SAP system to ensure they align with your organization's policies and procedures.
