• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLM_AUDIT_CGPL104 - &1 &2: You do not have authorization to create ?

  The SAP error message PLM_AUDIT_CGPL104 typically indicates that a user is attempting to perform an action (such as creating an audit or a related object) for which they do not have the necessary authorization. This is a common issue in SAP systems where user roles and authorizations are strictly managed.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user lacks the necessary authorization object that allows them to create the specific item (e.g., audit, document, etc.) in the PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) module.
  Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct role that includes the necessary permissions.
  Authorization Profile: The authorization profile assigned to the user may not include the required permissions for the action they are trying to perform.
  Transaction Restrictions: There may be restrictions on certain transactions based on the user's organizational unit or other criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations for creating the object in question.
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check which authorization objects are missing. This transaction provides a detailed view of the authorization check that failed.
  
  
  Modify Authorizations: If you have the necessary administrative rights, you can modify the user's authorizations using transaction PFCG (Profile Generator) to include the missing authorization objects.
  
  
  Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. Provide them with the error message and any relevant details so they can assist in resolving the issue.
  
  
  Testing: After changes are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt the action again to see if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  Related Information:
