• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TB565 - You have no comparison authorization in logon client (S_TABU_CLI) ?

  The SAP error message TB565 indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to perform a comparison in the specified logon client. This is related to the authorization object S_TABU_CLI, which controls access to client-specific tables.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when a user attempts to access or compare data in a client-specific table without having the required authorization. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to execute a transaction that requires access to client-specific data or when performing a comparison operation in a report or tool.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you need to ensure that the user has the appropriate authorization for the S_TABU_CLI object. Here are the steps to do this:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations for S_TABU_CLI.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user does not have the required authorization, you may need to modify an existing role or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations. This can be done using transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  When creating or modifying a role, ensure that you include the S_TABU_CLI authorization object with the appropriate field values (e.g., Activity, Client, Table Name).
  
  
  
  Authorization Object Fields:
  
  The S_TABU_CLI authorization object typically includes fields such as:
  
  Activity: The type of action the user is allowed to perform (e.g., display, change).
  Client: The client number for which the authorization is valid.
  Table Name: The specific table the user is trying to access.
  
  
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles, ask the user to log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved. They should attempt the action that previously resulted in the error.
  
  
  
  Consult Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify roles or if you are unsure about the changes, consult your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
