PRP_UI003 - Details

• The SAP error message PRP_UI003 indicates that a resource (such as a user, role, or other entity) is already assigned to the current role you are trying to modify or assign. This typically occurs in the context of role management within SAP, particularly when dealing with authorization roles in the Profile Generator (PFCG) or similar tools.
  
  Cause:
  
  Duplicate Assignment: The resource you are trying to assign is already linked to the role you are working with.
  Role Configuration: There may be a misconfiguration in the role setup, leading to conflicts when trying to assign resources.
  System Constraints: The system may have constraints or rules that prevent multiple assignments of the same resource to a role.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Existing Assignments:
  
  Navigate to the role in question using transaction code PFCG.
  Check the "User" tab to see if the resource (user or another entity) is already listed there.
  If it is, you may not need to assign it again.
