• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QP341 - Authorization is not allowed ?

  The SAP error message QP341 ("Authorization is not allowed") typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action that they do not have the necessary authorizations for, particularly in the context of Quality Management (QM) or related modules. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to create, change, or display quality notifications, inspection lots, or other QM-related objects.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations related to Quality Management.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific transaction or action they are trying to perform.
  Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may have the necessary authorizations, but they are restricted at the organizational level (e.g., plant, storage location).
  Profile Changes: Recent changes to user roles or profiles may have inadvertently removed necessary authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles in transaction PFCG to include the required authorization objects.
  Ensure that the roles are properly assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the transaction again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to Quality Management include Q_001 (Quality Management: General), Q_002 (Quality Management: Inspection Lot), and others depending on the specific actions being performed.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
  Audit Logs: Check audit logs for any recent changes to user roles that might have led to the loss of authorization.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the QP341 error and implement a solution to resolve it.
