• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ISDFPS/PM_CP115 - Change authorization for &1 &2 does not exist ?

  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/PM_CP115 Change authorization for &1 &2 does not exist typically occurs in the context of the SAP Plant Maintenance (PM) module, particularly when dealing with change authorizations for specific objects or entities. The placeholders &1 and &2 usually represent the specific object type and the object ID that the system is trying to access or modify.
  Cause:
  This error message indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to make changes to the specified object. The reasons for this could include:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate roles that grant the necessary permissions to change the specified object.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to the PM module may have restrictions that prevent the user from making changes.
  Incorrect User Profile: The user profile may not be correctly configured to allow changes to the specified object type.
  Object Status: The object may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., locked or completed).
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary roles for changing the object are assigned.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, you may need to assign the appropriate roles that include the required authorizations for the PM module.
  If you have access, you can modify the roles in transaction PFCG to include the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Check Object Status:
  
  Verify the status of the object you are trying to change. If it is locked or in a completed state, you may need to unlock it or change its status before making modifications.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to address the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, test the transaction again to ensure that the error is resolved.
