• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RPM_WORKLIST022 - You do not have authorization to delete the staffing of role &1 ?

  The SAP error message RPM_WORKLIST022 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to delete the staffing of a specific role in the Resource and Project Management (RPM) module. This error typically arises when a user attempts to perform an action that their current authorization profile does not permit.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects to delete staffing assignments for roles in the RPM module.
  Role Restrictions: The role being accessed may have specific restrictions that prevent certain actions, including deletions.
  User Profile Issues: The user’s profile may not be correctly configured to allow for the necessary actions within the RPM module.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Review the user’s authorization profile to ensure that they have the necessary permissions to delete staffing assignments. This can be done by using transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed.
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorization objects (e.g., S_RPM_AUTH for RPM-related activities).
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate access should modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Common authorization objects that may need to be checked include:
  
  S_TCODE (Transaction Code)
  S_RPM_AUTH (Resource and Project Management Authorization)
  S_USER_AUTH (User Authorization)
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can provide insights into the specific authorizations required and help adjust the user’s roles accordingly.
  
  
  
  Documentation and Training:
  
  Ensure that users are trained on the permissions and roles they have within the system. Documentation on the roles and their associated permissions can help prevent similar issues in the future.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Transaction Codes: 
  
  SU01 (User Maintenance) to check and modify user roles.
  PFCG (Role Maintenance) to manage roles and authorizations.
  SU53 (Authorization Check) to analyze failed authorization checks.
  
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to authorization in the RPM module.
  
  
  User Groups: Ensure that the user is part of the correct user groups that have the necessary permissions for the actions they need to perform.
