• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSM856 - You have no authorization for MultiProvider &1 ?

  The SAP error message RSM856 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to access a MultiProvider in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This error typically arises when a user attempts to execute a query or report that involves a MultiProvider for which they lack the required permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the necessary authorizations assigned in their user profile to access the MultiProvider.
  Role Issues: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary authorizations for the specific MultiProvider.
  Object Level Security: The security settings for the MultiProvider may restrict access based on certain criteria (e.g., data access restrictions).
  Transport Issues: If the MultiProvider was recently transported from another system, the authorizations may not have been properly set up in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the missing authorizations. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify what is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include access to the MultiProvider. This may involve adding the user to a role that has the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the user needs access to specific data within the MultiProvider, you may need to adjust the authorization objects associated with the MultiProvider. This can be done in transaction PFCG by modifying the role and adding the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Check MultiProvider Settings:
  
  Review the settings of the MultiProvider in transaction RSA1 (Data Warehousing Workbench) to ensure that it is correctly configured and that there are no restrictions that would prevent access.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to resolve the issue.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
