• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message NR810 - You are not authorized to use this function ?

  The SAP error message NR810 ("You are not authorized to use this function") typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform a specific action or access a particular function within the SAP system. This can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to execute a transaction, access a report, or use a specific module.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user role assigned to the user does not include the necessary authorizations for the function they are trying to access.
  Role Assignment Issues: The user may not have been assigned the correct role or profile that includes the required permissions.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to the function may have restrictions that the user does not meet.
  Changes in Authorization: Recent changes in roles or authorizations may have inadvertently removed access to certain functions.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Verify the roles assigned to the user by using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:

  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user is missing the necessary authorizations, the security team can modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.

  Testing:

  Test the function again to confirm that the user can now access it.
