• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPAY99BUFFER002 - No read authorization for cluster &1 ?

  The SAP error message HRPAY99BUFFER002 indicates that there is no read authorization for a specific cluster in the HR (Human Resources) module. This error typically occurs when a user attempts to access payroll data or other HR-related information without the necessary permissions.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a lack of authorization for the user to read data from a specific cluster in the HR payroll area. Clusters in SAP HR are used to store payroll results and other HR-related data, and access to these clusters is controlled by authorization objects.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization failure. This will show you which authorization object is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user's profile and check the assigned roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  The relevant authorization objects for HR payroll data access typically include:
  
  P_ORGIN: Personnel Administration
  P_PYXX: Payroll (where XX is the country key)
  
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for these objects.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Work with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure that the user is granted the appropriate access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
