  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message HRPSGB087 - No authorisation for costcenter &1 ?

    The SAP error message HRPSGB087, which states "No authorization for cost center &1," typically occurs when a user attempts to access or perform an action related to a specific cost center for which they do not have the necessary authorization. This is a common issue in SAP systems, particularly in modules related to Human Resources (HR) and Controlling (CO).

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization to access or modify the specified cost center. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
    2. Cost Center Configuration: The cost center may not be properly configured in the system, or it may be inactive.
    3. User Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the appropriate organizational units or roles that grant access to the cost center.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
      • Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance) to ensure they have the necessary permissions for the cost center.
    2. Modify User Roles:

      • If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to assign additional roles or modify existing ones to include access to the relevant cost center.
      • Ensure that the roles assigned to the user include the necessary authorization objects related to cost center access (e.g., C_KOSTL for cost center authorization).
    3. Cost Center Status:

      • Verify the status of the cost center in transaction code KS03 (Display Cost Center). Ensure that the cost center is active and correctly configured.
    4. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify user roles or if you are unsure about the required authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
    5. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user’s authorizations or roles, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with relevant authorization objects such as C_KOSTL (Cost Center) and C_TCODE (Transaction Code) that govern access to cost centers.
    • SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on authorization concepts and best practices.
    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • SU01: User Maintenance
