• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSDA131 - User &1 does not have authorization to reload InfoProvider &2 ?

  The SAP error message RSDA131 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to reload a specific InfoProvider. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA when a user attempts to execute a data load or a data extraction process.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by insufficient authorizations assigned to the user trying to perform the reload operation. Specifically, the user lacks the necessary permissions to access or manipulate the specified InfoProvider (e.g., InfoCube, DataStore Object, etc.).
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to display the user profile of the affected user (replace &1 with the actual username).
  Review the roles assigned to the user and check if they include the necessary authorizations for the InfoProvider in question (replace &2 with the actual InfoProvider name).
  
  
  
  Assign Required Roles:
  
  If the user does not have the required roles, you may need to assign them. This can be done through transaction code PFCG (Profile Generator).
  Ensure that the roles assigned to the user include the necessary authorizations for data loading and access to the specific InfoProvider.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization Objects:
  
  The relevant authorization objects for data loading in BW include:
  
  S_BI_WAA: Authorizations for data warehousing.
  S_BI_OA: Authorizations for operational data provisioning.
  
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations in these objects.
  
  
  
  Test the Authorization:
  
  After making changes to the user’s roles or authorizations, test the authorization by attempting to reload the InfoProvider again.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles or if you are unsure about the required authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
