• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message QS349 - You do not have authorization for some code groups within the selection ?

  The SAP error message QS349 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to access certain code groups within a selection. This typically occurs in the context of quality management (QM) or other modules where code groups are used to categorize data, such as inspection characteristics or quality notifications.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects that grant access to specific code groups.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the code groups in question.
  Code Group Restrictions: The code groups may have been restricted to certain users or roles, preventing access for others.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  Review the user’s roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG to identify if the necessary authorizations are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorization objects (e.g., Q_AUTH for quality management).
  Ensure that the role includes access to the relevant code groups.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. Provide them with the details of the error and the code groups you need access to.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After adjustments are made, test the transaction again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
