• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PEP030 - No authorization to change task list & ?

  The SAP error message PEP030 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to change a task list in the system. This error typically occurs in the context of production planning or project management when a user attempts to modify a task list but lacks the required permissions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of the PEP030 error is insufficient authorization. This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  User Role Configuration: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate role that includes the necessary authorizations for changing task lists.
  Authorization Object: The specific authorization object related to task list changes (e.g., C_TPLK for task lists) may not be included in the user's profile.
  Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may have access to certain organizational levels but not to others, which can restrict their ability to make changes.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the PEP030 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Ensure that the user has a role that includes the necessary authorizations for changing task lists.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
  If you identify a missing authorization object, you may need to work with your SAP security team to update the user's roles.
  
  
  
  Modify User Authorizations:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the user's authorizations in transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to include the required authorizations for task list changes.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, test the task list change again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
