• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message GG060 - You do not have authorization to change or display field movements ?

  The SAP error message GG060, which states "You do not have authorization to change or display field movements," typically occurs when a user attempts to access or modify field movements in the SAP system without the necessary authorizations. This error is related to the authorization objects that control access to specific functions within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Lack of Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization to view or change field movements. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations assigned to the user profile.
  Authorization Object: The specific authorization object related to field movements (e.g., S_TCODE, S_TABU_DIS, S_DATA) may not be properly configured for the user.
  Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations for the transaction or function they are trying to access.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to check the user’s profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Work with your SAP security team to review the roles assigned to the user. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations for field movements.
  If the user needs access, the security team can create or modify roles to include the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the authorization objects to include the required access for the user.
  Ensure that the changes comply with your organization’s security policies.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
