  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message LECI028 - You do not have authorization to change objects ?

    The SAP error message LECI028, which states "You do not have authorization to change objects," typically indicates that the user attempting to perform an action does not have the necessary permissions to modify the specified objects in the SAP system. This can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to change master data, configuration settings, or other objects.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization roles or permissions to perform the action.
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations.
    3. Object-Specific Restrictions: There may be specific restrictions on certain objects that prevent changes, even if the user has general permissions.
    4. Profile Issues: The user's profile may not be correctly configured to allow changes to the specific object type.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles:

      • Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
      • Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for the action being attempted.
    2. Review Authorization Objects:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed and why.
      • If you identify missing authorizations, you may need to request additional roles or permissions from your SAP security team.
    3. Request Role Changes:

      • If the user needs additional permissions, submit a request to the SAP security team to modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations.
    4. Testing:

      • After changes are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
      • Test the action again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP documentation or internal guidelines regarding authorization management to ensure compliance with security policies.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
