• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MIMA139 - No authorization for group &1, activity &2 ?

  The SAP error message MIMA139 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization for a specific group and activity. This error typically arises in the context of authorization checks within SAP, where the system verifies if a user has the required permissions to perform a certain action.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  The user is trying to access a specific group (e.g., a user group, authorization group, etc.) for which they do not have the required authorization.
  The activity (e.g., create, change, display, delete) that the user is attempting to perform is not permitted due to missing authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the MIMA139 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This will show you the last authorization check that failed and provide insights into which specific authorization object is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to view the user’s profile and check the assigned roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the group and activity in question.
  If the user is missing the required role, you may need to assign it to them.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the user should have access but does not, you may need to modify the authorization objects associated with their roles. This can be done using transaction PFCG (Profile Generator).
  Ensure that the relevant authorization objects are included in the role and that the necessary values for the group and activity are set correctly.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the action that previously caused the error to confirm that it has been resolved.
