• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message STGR006 - You are not authorized to display Group Type ?

  The SAP error message STGR006, which states "You are not authorized to display Group Type," typically occurs when a user attempts to access or display a specific group type in the SAP system but lacks the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is insufficient authorization for the user role or profile that is currently assigned to the user. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Objects: The user does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their role.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include permissions for the specific group type they are trying to access.
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured to allow access to the required transaction or data.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the STGR006 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which authorization object is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to check the user’s roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction PFCG (Profile Generator).
  Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects related to the group type in question.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the roles to include the required authorizations. This may involve adding specific authorization objects or adjusting the values for existing ones.
  If you do not have the necessary permissions, contact your SAP security administrator or the person responsible for user roles and authorizations in your organization.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved.
  Test the access to the group type again to confirm that the error no longer appears.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
