• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC002 - You are not authorized to view all contexts for this query ?

  The SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC002 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to view all contexts for a specific query in the SAP system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) or similar modules where access to certain data or contexts is restricted based on user roles and authorizations.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization objects or roles that grant access to the specific contexts or data being queried.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific PLM functionalities or data views.
  Context Restrictions: The query may be designed to restrict access to certain contexts based on user roles, and the user does not have access to those contexts.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in the SAP system. Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations for the PLM module.
  Review Authorization Objects: Identify the specific authorization objects related to the query and check if the user has the required authorizations. Common authorization objects in PLM include:
  
  C_PLM_AUTH (for PLM authorization)
  S_PLM_CONTEXT (for context access)
  
  
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, work with your SAP security team to modify the user’s roles or create new roles that include the required authorizations.
  Test Access: After making changes, test the access again to ensure that the user can now view the required contexts without encountering the error.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific details on the authorization requirements for the PLM module and the relevant queries.
  
  Related Information:
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on authorization issues in PLM.
  Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SU01 (User Maintenance) to manage user roles and authorizations, and PFCG (Role Maintenance) to create or modify roles.
  Security Audit: Conduct a security audit to ensure that all users have the appropriate access levels and that there are no unnecessary restrictions that could hinder their work.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to engage with your SAP Basis or security team for further investigation and resolution.
