• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSL_UI279 - Authorization-relevant InfoObjects are not permitted ?

  The SAP error message RSL_UI279, which states "Authorization-relevant InfoObjects are not permitted," typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BW/4HANA when there are issues related to authorization settings for InfoObjects in a query or report.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The error is primarily caused by the presence of InfoObjects in a query that require specific authorizations, and the user executing the query does not have the necessary permissions to access those InfoObjects.
  Query Design: The query may be designed to include InfoObjects that are marked as authorization-relevant, but the user does not have the required authorizations to view or interact with those objects.
  Data Source Restrictions: The data source or InfoProvider being used may have restrictions that prevent certain users from accessing specific InfoObjects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations: 
  
  Verify the authorizations assigned to the user executing the query. Ensure that the user has the necessary roles and authorizations to access the relevant InfoObjects.
  Use transaction code SU53 to analyze authorization failures after the error occurs. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify missing authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Query Design:
  
  If the query is designed to include authorization-relevant InfoObjects, consider modifying the query to exclude these objects or to use alternative InfoObjects that do not have such restrictions.
  Review the query definition in the Query Designer and check the properties of the InfoObjects involved.
  
  
  
  Adjust InfoObject Settings:
  
  If appropriate, review the settings of the InfoObjects in question. You may need to adjust their authorization settings in the InfoObject maintenance (transaction RSD1) to ensure they are accessible to the intended users.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP security team or basis team. They can help review and adjust the authorization roles and profiles as needed.
