• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC022 - Error during deletion of context &1 ?

  The SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC022 typically indicates that there is an issue related to authorization when trying to delete a context in the SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) module. The error message specifically states that there was an error during the deletion of a context, and it often points to a lack of necessary permissions for the user attempting the action.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorizations to delete the specified context. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in the user's profile.
  Context Locking: The context might be locked by another user or process, preventing deletion.
  Data Integrity Constraints: There may be data integrity constraints that prevent the deletion of the context, such as dependencies on other objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Authorizations:
  
  Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete contexts in the PLM module. This can be done by checking the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU53 or SUIM.
  If the user lacks the required authorizations, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  Use transaction SM12 to check if the context is locked by another user. If it is, you may need to wait for the lock to be released or contact the user who has the lock.
  
  
  
  Review Data Integrity:
  
  Ensure that there are no dependencies or constraints that would prevent the deletion of the context. This may involve checking related objects or data that are linked to the context.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific context you are trying to delete. There may be specific guidelines or considerations for deletion.
  
  
  
  Contact SAP Support:
  
  If the issue persists after checking authorizations and locks, consider reaching out to SAP support for further assistance. Provide them with the error message details and any relevant context.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SU53 (Authorization Check), SM12 (Lock Entries), and SUIM (User Information System) for checking user roles and authorizations.
  SAP Notes: Search for SAP Notes related to the error message or the PLM module for any known issues or patches that may address the problem.
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on the proper procedures for managing contexts in PLM to minimize errors related to authorizations.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to resolve it.
