• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /S4PPM/AUTHORIZATION019 - Project & not processed ?

  The SAP error message /S4PPM/AUTHORIZATION019 typically indicates an authorization issue related to project management in the SAP S/4HANA environment. This error occurs when a user attempts to perform an action related to a project but lacks the necessary authorizations to do so.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or incorrect role assignments.
  Role Changes: Recent changes to user roles or authorizations may have inadvertently removed necessary permissions.
  Project-Specific Restrictions: The project may have specific authorization checks that the user does not meet.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to view the user’s roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorization objects for project management.
  If roles are missing, they need to be assigned by a system administrator or a user with the necessary privileges.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Profiles:
  
  If the user requires additional access, the authorization profiles can be modified to include the necessary permissions.
  This may involve working with your SAP security team to ensure that the changes comply with your organization’s security policies.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines regarding project management authorizations to understand the specific requirements.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Test the functionality again to confirm that the error has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to project management in SAP include C_PROJ (Project Management) and C_PROJ_T (Project Management: Texts).
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PFCG (Role Maintenance) for managing roles and authorizations.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide guidance on authorization errors.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to engage with your SAP Basis or security team for further investigation and resolution.
