• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RE210 - You are not authorized to create earmarked funds ?

  The SAP error message RE210, "You are not authorized to create earmarked funds," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Real Estate Management (RE) module when a user attempts to create earmarked funds (also known as "earmarked budget" or "earmarked funds management") but lacks the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The error is primarily caused by insufficient user authorizations. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user does not have the required roles or permissions assigned to their user profile to create earmarked funds.
  Authorization Objects: Specific authorization objects related to funds management may not be properly configured for the user.
  Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may not have access to the organizational units or areas where the earmarked funds are being created.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RE210 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Verify the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system. This can be done by using transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorizations are missing.
  Ensure that the user has the necessary roles that include permissions for creating earmarked funds.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Check the relevant authorization objects, such as F_BKPF_BES (for document management) and F_FMBL_BES (for funds management), to ensure that the user has the necessary permissions.
  If the user is missing specific authorizations, you may need to work with your SAP security team to update the user's roles.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to modify user roles, contact your SAP security or basis team to request the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After adjustments are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Attempt to create earmarked funds again to verify that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as RE21N (for creating earmarked funds) and SU01 (for user maintenance).
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or help files related to authorization management and funds management to understand the specific requirements for creating earmarked funds.
  Training: Consider providing training or resources for users who frequently encounter authorization issues to help them understand the necessary permissions and processes.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the authorization issue causing the RE210 error in SAP.
