• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SRMHRPAPL002 - Some infotype records were preserved due to insufficient authorization ?

  The SAP error message SRMHRPAPL002 indicates that some infotype records were not processed because the user does not have sufficient authorization to modify or access those records. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only access or modify data that they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user executing the transaction does not have the necessary authorizations assigned in their user profile to access or modify certain infotype records.
  Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects related to the infotypes being accessed may not be included in the user's role.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be properly configured to include the necessary permissions for the infotypes in question.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization check failure. This will show which authorization object was missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user's roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction PFCG. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations for the infotypes being accessed.
  If the roles do not have the required authorizations, you may need to modify the roles or create a new role that includes the necessary permissions.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to modify roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After adjustments are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to perform the action again to see if the error persists.
