• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC044 - Data saved ?

  The SAP error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC044 typically indicates an authorization issue related to the access control for a specific action or transaction within the SAP system. This error message is often encountered in the context of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management) or similar modules where user permissions are critical for data manipulation.
  Cause:
  The error message /PLMB/AUTH_ACC044 generally arises due to one or more of the following reasons:
  
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform the action they are attempting. This could be related to specific transaction codes, object types, or data access levels.
  
  
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific PLM functions or data objects.
  
  
  Data Locking: The data being accessed may be locked by another user or process, preventing the current user from making changes.
  
  
  Custom Authorization Checks: There may be custom authorization checks implemented in the system that are preventing the action.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the /PLMB/AUTH_ACC044 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific permission is lacking.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure they have the necessary permissions.
  
  
  
  Role Adjustment:
  
  If the user lacks the required authorizations, you may need to adjust their roles or create a new role that includes the necessary permissions for the actions they need to perform.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user's authorizations.
  
  
  
  Check for Data Locks:
  
  Verify if the data is locked by another user or process. You can use transaction SM12 to check for locks and SM21 for system logs.
  
  
  
  Review Custom Code:
  
  If there are custom authorization checks in place, review the custom code or consult with the development team to understand the logic and make necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user test the action again to confirm that the issue has been resolved.
