• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message P05FBN241 - No Authorization for Saving Choice in InfoType & ?

  The SAP error message P05FBN241, which states "No Authorization for Saving Choice in InfoType &," typically occurs when a user attempts to save data in a specific infotype but lacks the necessary authorizations to perform that action. This is common in SAP systems where user roles and authorizations are strictly managed to ensure data integrity and security.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization object to save changes in the specified infotype.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the infotype in question.
  Infotype Configuration: The infotype may have specific settings that restrict access based on user roles or organizational units.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization failure. This will show which authorization object is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user’s roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the infotype.
  If the user needs access, a security administrator can modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the authorization object is missing, it may need to be added to the user’s role. Common authorization objects for infotypes include:
  
  P_ORGIN: Personnel Administration
  P_PERS: Personnel Actions
  
  
  Ensure that the relevant infotype (e.g., 0001 for Organizational Assignment, 0002 for Personal Data) is included in the authorization checks.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After changes are made, have the user log out and back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to save the infotype again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Infotypes: Infotypes are data structures in SAP that store specific types of information about employees (e.g., personal data, organizational assignment).
  Authorization Objects: These are used in SAP to control access to various functions and data. Each infotype may require specific authorization objects to allow users to view or modify data.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU53: Display Authorization Check
  SU01: User Maintenance
  PPOSE: Display Organizational Plan (to check organizational assignments)
  
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the authorization issue related to the error message P05FBN241.
