• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RQ426 - Grant &1 is not valid on &2 ?

  The SAP error message RQ426 "Grant &1 is not valid on &2" typically occurs in the context of SAP's role-based access control (RBAC) and authorization management. This error indicates that there is an issue with the authorization grant (role or profile) that is being assigned or checked against a specific object (like a user or a transaction).
  Cause:
  
  
  Invalid Grant: The grant (role or profile) specified in the error message is not valid for the object it is being applied to. This could be due to:
  
  The role or profile does not exist.
  The role or profile is not assigned to the user or is inactive.
  The role or profile is not compatible with the object type (e.g., trying to assign a role meant for a different application).
  
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the specified object.
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the authorization management settings or in the role definitions.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Role/Grant Validity:
  
  Verify that the role or profile specified in the error message exists in the system.
  Ensure that the role is active and properly configured.
  
  
  
  Role Assignment:
  
  Check if the role is assigned to the user in question. You can do this by navigating to the user management transaction (e.g., SU01) and reviewing the roles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Authorization Checks:
  
  Use transaction SU53 to analyze the authorization check that failed. This transaction provides insights into which authorizations are missing for the user.
  
  
  
  Role Compatibility:
  
  Ensure that the role is compatible with the object type you are trying to access. If necessary, consult with your SAP security team to adjust the role definitions.

  If the role was recently transported from another system, ensure that the transport was successful and that all necessary objects were included.
