  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SROLECMP001 - You are not authorized to display role &1 in system &2 ?

    The SAP error message SROLECMP001 indicates that a user is attempting to access a role in the system for which they do not have the necessary authorization. This error typically occurs when a user tries to display or manage a role that they are not permitted to view.

    Cause:

    The primary cause of this error is a lack of authorization for the user to access the specified role (&1) in the specified system (&2). This can happen due to several reasons:

    • The user does not have the necessary authorization objects assigned to their user profile.
    • The role is restricted to certain users or user groups, and the current user does not belong to those groups.
    • The role may be set to be visible only to specific users or roles.

    Solution:

    To resolve the SROLECMP001 error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Verify the user's authorization profile to ensure they have the necessary permissions to view the role. This can be done using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) to check the user's roles and authorizations.
    2. Review Role Authorization:

      • Use transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance) to review the role in question. Check the authorization data and ensure that the user or their user group is included in the role's authorization.
    3. Adjust Role Visibility:

      • If the role is restricted, consider adjusting the role's visibility settings to include the user or user group that needs access.
    4. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can help adjust the authorizations or provide the necessary access.
    5. Testing:

      • After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved. You can also use transaction SU53 to analyze authorization failures after the error occurs.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that control access to roles, such as S_USER_AUTH, S_USER_AGR, and S_USER_PRO.
    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation on authorization concepts and role management for a deeper understanding of how roles and authorizations work in SAP.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to grant the necessary access to the user.
