• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message T100_MDG_BS_DRAD009 - No authorization to display document links for &1 type &2 for user &3 ?

  The SAP error message T100_MDG_BS_DRAD009 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display document links for a specific document type. This error typically occurs in the context of Master Data Governance (MDG) when a user attempts to access document links associated with a particular business object or document type.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by insufficient authorization for the user (user ID &3) to view document links of the specified type (&2) for the given object (&1). This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate roles that grant access to the document links.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to document links may not be properly configured or may restrict access based on certain criteria.
  User Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly set up to include the necessary permissions.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID (&3).
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for document link access.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Identify the relevant authorization objects that control access to document links. Common objects include S_DOKU_AUTH (Document Management Authorization) or others specific to your configuration.
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what is missing.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorizations:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the roles or create new ones that include the required permissions.
  Work with your SAP security team to ensure that the roles are compliant with your organization’s security policies.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the functionality again to confirm that the error no longer occurs.
