• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RS2HANA_AUTH404 - SYSTEMPRIVILEGE &1 is assigned ?

  The SAP error message RS2HANA_AUTH404 SYSTEMPRIVILEGE &1 is assigned typically occurs in the context of SAP BW/4HANA or SAP BW on HANA when there are issues related to authorizations and privileges for accessing data or executing certain operations.
  Cause:
  The error indicates that a specific system privilege (denoted by &1) is assigned to a user or role, but the user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform the requested action. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorizations to access certain data or execute specific transactions.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary privileges for the operation being attempted.
  System Privilege Issues: The system privilege itself may not be correctly configured or may not be applicable to the user's context.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RS2HANA_AUTH404 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU01 to check the user’s authorizations.
  Ensure that the user has the necessary roles assigned that include the required system privileges.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
  
  Use transaction PFCG to review the roles assigned to the user.
  Ensure that the roles contain the necessary authorizations for the operations being performed.
  
  
  
  Assign Missing Privileges:
  
  If the required system privilege is missing, you may need to assign it to the user or role.
  This can be done in the role maintenance transaction (PFCG) by adding the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Check for Authorization Objects:
  
  Identify the specific authorization objects related to the system privilege in question.
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for these objects.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
