• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message P4113 - No authorization for company code and activity &1 &2 ?

  The SAP error message P4113 "No authorization for company code and activity &1 &2" typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform a specific action related to a company code in the SAP system. This error is often encountered in modules like Financial Accounting (FI) or Controlling (CO) when a user attempts to access or modify data for a company code for which they lack the appropriate permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the correct authorization roles that include access to the specified company code.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to company codes (e.g., F_BKPF_BES, F_BKPF_BUK, etc.) may not be configured to allow the user to perform the requested activity.
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly set up, or the user may be using a different profile that lacks the necessary permissions.
  Activity Restrictions: The specific activity (e.g., create, change, display) may be restricted for the user in relation to the company code.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles that include access to the required company code and activities.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the roles are correct but the user still encounters issues, check the authorization objects associated with the roles. Ensure that the company code and activities are included in the authorization settings.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and back in, or refresh their session to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the transaction again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
