• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SU2X203 - Object &1 exists in the check indicator, but not in SU21 ?

  The SAP error message SU2X203 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the check indicators in transaction SU24 and the definitions in transaction SU21. Specifically, it means that an object (like a transaction, program, or function module) is listed in the check indicators for authorization checks, but it does not have a corresponding entry in the authorization object definitions in SU21.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The object referenced in the check indicator is not defined in SU21, which means it has not been created or is not active.
  Transport Issues: If the object was recently transported from another system, it may not have been included in the transport request or may not have been imported correctly.
  Manual Changes: If there were manual changes made to the authorization checks or objects, it could lead to inconsistencies.

  Check SU21: Go to transaction SU21 and verify if the authorization object exists. If it does not exist, you may need to create it.
  Create Authorization Object: If the object is missing, you can create it in SU21. Ensure that you define the necessary fields and values that are required for the authorization checks.
  Adjust SU24: If the object should not be checked, you can adjust the check indicators in SU24 to remove the reference to the object.
