  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SY370 - You are not authorized to load type information ?

    The SAP error message SY370 ("You are not authorized to load type information") typically occurs when a user attempts to access or load type information (such as data types, structures, or other metadata) in the ABAP environment but lacks the necessary authorizations.

    Cause:

    The error is primarily caused by insufficient authorizations assigned to the user profile. This can happen due to:

    1. Missing Authorization Objects: The user does not have the required authorization objects that allow access to type information.
    2. Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for accessing type information.
    3. System Configuration: There may be system-wide settings that restrict access to certain types of information.

    Solution:

    To resolve the SY370 error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) to ensure they have the necessary authorizations.
    2. Assign Required Authorizations:

      • Ensure that the user has the necessary authorization objects, such as:
        • S_TCODE: Authorization for transaction codes.
        • S_DEVELOP: Authorization for development objects.
        • S_PROGRAM: Authorization for program execution.
      • If the user needs to access specific types or structures, ensure that the relevant authorization objects are included in their roles.
    3. Role Adjustment:

      • If you are an administrator, you may need to adjust the roles assigned to the user. Use transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to modify roles and add the necessary authorizations.
    4. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
    5. Testing:

      • After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the action that previously caused the error to confirm that it has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that pertain to your specific SAP environment and the types of information being accessed.
    • Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for detailed information on authorization management and best practices.

    By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the SY370 error and ensure that the user has the necessary access to load type information in SAP.
