• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SU2X244 - Identical default values for object &1 have been compressed (&2) ?

  The SAP error message SU2X244 indicates that there are identical default values for a specific object that have been compressed. This typically occurs in the context of user authorizations and roles within the SAP system, particularly when dealing with authorization objects.
  Cause:
  The error arises when the system detects that multiple default values for an authorization object are identical and have been compressed into a single entry. This can happen during the creation or modification of roles or profiles where default values are set for authorization objects, and the system optimizes the storage by compressing identical entries.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects: Check the authorization objects associated with the role or profile that is generating the error. Look for any duplicate entries or identical default values.
  
  
  Adjust Role Configuration: If you find that there are indeed identical default values, consider adjusting the role configuration to eliminate redundancy. This may involve:
  
  Removing duplicate entries.
  Consolidating similar authorizations into a single entry.
  
  
  
  Use Transaction SU01 or PFCG: You can use transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance) to review and modify the roles and authorizations. Ensure that the default values are set correctly and that there are no unnecessary duplicates.
  
  
  Check for Transport Issues: If this error occurs after a transport, ensure that the transport did not inadvertently introduce duplicate entries. You may need to check the transport logs and the objects being transported.
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide additional guidance on handling authorization issues.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes, test the role or authorization object to ensure that the error no longer occurs and that the intended authorizations are still functioning as expected.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: These are used in SAP to control access to various functions and data within the system. Each object can have multiple fields that define the access level.
  Role Maintenance (PFCG): This transaction is used to create and manage roles in SAP, including defining authorization objects and their values.
  User Profiles: User profiles in SAP can be assigned roles that contain authorization objects, and issues with these can lead to errors like SU2X244.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or Security team for further investigation.
