• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IWP_BUR121 - No authorization to display report;configuration ID &2 and auth. group &1 ?

  The SAP error message IWP_BUR121 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display a specific report associated with a configuration ID and an authorization group. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Business Workflow or SAP Business Intelligence (BI) reporting.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a lack of appropriate authorizations in the user's role or profile. Specifically, the user is trying to access a report that is restricted by an authorization group, and their current user profile does not include the necessary permissions to view that report.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user's profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Groups:
  
  Identify the authorization group associated with the report (in this case, &1).
  Check the configuration ID (&2) to understand which report is being accessed.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the user's roles to include the required authorizations. This may involve adding the user to a role that has access to the relevant authorization group.
  If you do not have the necessary permissions, contact your SAP security administrator or the person responsible for user roles and authorizations in your organization.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Test the report access again to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: In SAP, authorizations are managed through authorization objects. You may need to check the specific authorization objects related to the report and the authorization group.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  SU53: Display Authorization Check
  PFCG: Role Maintenance (to manage roles and authorizations)
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing user authorizations and roles.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, further investigation may be required, potentially involving SAP support or a deeper analysis of the authorization setup in your system.
