• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RQ188 - No authorization for company code & ?

  The SAP error message RQ188, which states "No authorization for company code &," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action in SAP that requires authorization for a specific company code, but the user does not have the necessary permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization for the specified company code in their user profile.
  Role Assignment: The roles assigned to the user do not include the necessary authorizations for the company code.
  Authorization Object: The relevant authorization object (e.g., F_BKPF_BLA, F_BKPF_BUK) is not properly configured or is missing the necessary values for the company code.
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be updated or may have been incorrectly set up.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what is missing.
  Alternatively, use transaction code SU01 to view the user’s profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Role Adjustment:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles that include access to the required company code.
  Ensure that the roles are correctly configured to include the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the authorization objects are not correctly set up, you may need to modify them to include the required company code. This typically requires access to transaction PFCG (Profile Generator) to adjust roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  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.
  
  
  
  Documentation:
  
  Document any changes made to user roles or authorizations for future reference and compliance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects for financial transactions, such as F_BKPF_BLA (Accounting Document: Authorization for Company Code) and F_BKPF_BUK (Accounting Document: Authorization for Business Area).
  SAP Security: Understanding SAP security concepts and how roles and authorizations work is crucial for troubleshooting authorization issues.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to authorization errors, as there may be specific patches or recommendations from SAP.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP Basis or Security team for further investigation.
