• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RX053 - There is a destroyed authorization in user master record ?

  The SAP error message RX053 indicates that there is a "destroyed authorization" in the user master record. This typically means that the user has been assigned an authorization object that is no longer valid or has been deleted, leading to issues with the user's ability to perform certain actions within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted Authorization Objects: The authorization object that was previously assigned to the user has been deleted or modified in a way that it is no longer valid.
  Transport Issues: If changes to authorization objects were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), it might lead to inconsistencies.
  Role Changes: Changes in roles assigned to the user may have led to the removal of necessary authorizations.
  User Master Record Corruption: There may be corruption or inconsistencies in the user master record itself.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Enter the user ID and check the authorizations assigned to the user.
  Look for any roles or profiles that may contain the destroyed authorization.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction code SUIM (User Information System) to analyze the authorizations.
  Check if the authorization objects assigned to the user are still valid and exist in the system.
  
  
  
  Reassign Roles:
  
  If a role has been modified or deleted, consider reassigning the user to a valid role that contains the necessary authorizations.
  You can also create a new role with the required authorizations and assign it to the user.
  
  
  
  Transport Check:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to see if any authorization objects were affected.
  Ensure that all necessary objects were transported correctly.
  
  
  
  Authorization Trace:
  
  Use transaction code ST01 (System Trace) to perform an authorization trace to identify which specific authorization is causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team:
  
  If the problem persists, consult with your SAP Basis team or security administrator to investigate further and resolve any underlying issues.
