• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/ALB_FNP_MSG108 - No authorization to change this range ?

  The SAP error message /PM0/ALB_FNP_MSG108 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to change a specific range in the system. This error typically arises in the context of authorization checks within SAP, particularly when dealing with functions related to planning, budgeting, or other financial processes.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user attempting to make changes does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations related to the specific transaction or function.
  Authorization Group Restrictions: The object or range being modified may be restricted by an authorization group that the user is not part of.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict access to certain ranges or data based on user roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization objects were checked and which ones failed.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance) to ensure that the necessary authorizations are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user’s roles to include the required authorization objects.
  Ensure that the roles are properly assigned to the user and that they are activated.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP security team or basis team. They can provide insights into the authorization setup and help troubleshoot the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, 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 error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
