• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MMPUR_REQ_COMMON019 - No Authorisation to create items for Purchasing Group &1 ?

  The SAP error message MMPUR_REQ_COMMON019 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to create items for a specific Purchasing Group in the system. This is a common issue that can arise when users attempt to create purchase requisitions or other purchasing documents.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of authorization in the user's role or profile for the specific Purchasing Group. In SAP, authorizations are managed through roles and profiles, and each role can have specific permissions related to various purchasing activities, including the ability to create items for designated Purchasing Groups.
  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 object is missing.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 to display the user profile.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and see if they include the necessary authorizations for the Purchasing Group in question.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the roles assigned to the user. This can be done using transaction code PFCG.
  Identify the role that needs to be modified and add the necessary authorization objects related to purchasing (e.g., M_BEST_BSA, M_BEST_EKO, etc.) that include the relevant Purchasing Group.
  
  
  
  Authorization Objects:
  
  Ensure that the authorization objects related to purchasing groups are correctly configured. For example, the authorization object M_BEST_BSA controls the authorization for purchasing documents and includes fields for the Purchasing Group.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the transaction again to confirm that the error has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to assist in resolving the issue.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Management: Understanding how authorizations work in SAP is crucial. Familiarize yourself with the concept of authorization objects, roles, and profiles.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on authorization objects related to purchasing.
  Transaction Codes:
