• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message S_PROFGEN_START_AUTH001 - Object type &1 &2 is not registered ?

  The SAP error message S_PROFGEN_START_AUTH001 indicates that there is an issue with authorization checks related to a specific object type in the SAP system. The message typically states that the object type (identified by &1 and &2) is not registered, which means that the system cannot find the necessary authorization object in its configuration.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The specified object type is not defined in the system. This could happen if the object was not created or if it was deleted.
  Incorrect Configuration: The authorization object may not be properly configured or registered in the system.
  Transport Issues: If the object was recently transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process that caused it not to be registered correctly.
  User Role Issues: The user trying to access the object may not have the necessary roles assigned that include the required authorization objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Object Registration:
  
  Use transaction code SU21 to check if the authorization object is registered in the system. If it is not, you may need to create it or ensure it is properly defined.
  
  
  
  Create or Modify Authorization Object:
  
  If the object is missing, you may need to create it using transaction code SU21. Ensure that it is defined correctly with the necessary fields and values.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user experiencing the issue using transaction code SU01. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects.
  If roles are missing, you may need to assign the appropriate roles to the user.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues:
  
  If the object was recently transported, check the transport logs for any errors. You may need to re-transport the object or manually create it in the target system.
  
  
  
  Authorization Trace:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check that failed. This can provide insights into what specific authorization is missing.
