  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message REBPBP045 - Role &1 [&2] is not allowed (does not agree with technical role &3 [&4]) ?

    The SAP error message REBPBP045 indicates that there is a mismatch between the business partner role you are trying to assign and the technical role that is defined in the system. This typically occurs in the context of Business Partner (BP) management, where roles are used to define the functions and responsibilities of a business partner in the system.

    Cause:

    3. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to assign the specified role to the business partner.

    Solution:

    1. Check Role Assignment: Verify the roles that are currently assigned to the business partner. Ensure that the role you are trying to assign is compatible with the existing technical role.
    2. Review Configuration: Go to the configuration settings in the SAP system (transaction code SPRO) and check the settings for Business Partner roles. Ensure that the roles are correctly defined and that there are no restrictions preventing the assignment.
    3. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user attempting to assign the role has the necessary authorizations. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
    4. Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or help files related to Business Partner roles to understand the relationships and restrictions between different roles.
