• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KY146 - No authorization for report class & ?

  The SAP error message KY146 ("No authorization for report class &") typically indicates that a user is trying to access a report or transaction for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can occur in various SAP modules, particularly in the context of controlling (CO) and reporting.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization object assigned to their user profile to access the specific report class.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the report class in question.
  Authorization Object: The relevant authorization object (e.g., K_KEK0 for CO reports) may not be included in the user's profile.
  Report Class Restrictions: The report class itself may have restrictions that prevent certain users from accessing it.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include access to the required report class.
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
  Modify Roles: If the necessary authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This can be done in transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
