• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PICM/UI030 - You are not authorized to delete issue &1 ?

  The SAP error message /PICM/UI030 You are not authorized to delete issue &1 indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to delete a specific issue in the system. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only perform actions that they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Role: The user does not have the appropriate authorization role assigned that includes the permission to delete issues.
  Object Level Authorization: The user may have the role but lacks the specific object-level authorization for the action of deleting issues.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the authorization management that restrict the deletion of issues for certain users or roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and check the roles assigned to the user experiencing the issue.
  Ensure that the user has the necessary roles that include permissions for deleting issues.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization object is missing.
  Common authorization objects related to issue management might include PICM_ISSUE or similar, depending on your specific SAP configuration.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the required permissions.
  This can be done using transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance). Ensure that the role includes the necessary authorizations for deleting issues.
  
  
  
  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. They can help identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Test the deletion action again to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
