• Message class: KH - CO-PA Reporting

• Message number: 702

• Message text: You have no authorization to read this data

What causes this issue?

Your user master record has not been maintained sufficiently to allow
you to display the data requested.

System Response

When your authorizations for &V1& were checked, return code &V2& was
registered for ABAP language element "AUTHORITY-CHECK".

How to fix this error?

Further processing is dependent on the return code registered. Check
the online documentation for ABAP language element "AUTHORITY-CHECK".
Note that:
return code 12 means that &V1& will not be maintained in the user
master, i.e. no profile containing this authorization object exists in
the user master. However, this is necessary as all authorization
objects for the current application and table contained in Table TKEB3
are checked in AND operation. If the authorization for just one object
is missing, the request will be refused.
Have your system administrator create a profile for you in which there
is an authorization for &V1&.
