  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TU651 - No authorization for authorization group &1 ?

    The SAP error message TU651 ("No authorization for authorization group &1") typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action that requires specific authorizations related to a particular authorization group, but the user does not have the necessary permissions.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization for the specified authorization group.
    2. Authorization Group Configuration: The authorization group may not be properly configured in the system.
    3. User Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations for the action they are trying to perform.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to check the user's roles and authorizations.
    2. Modify User Roles:

      • If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify their roles or add a new role that includes the required authorizations for the specified authorization group.
      • This can be done using transaction PFCG (Profile Generator) to create or modify roles.
    3. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can review the authorization settings and make the necessary adjustments.
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, test the action again to see if the error persists.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Groups: These are used in SAP to control access to certain objects or transactions. They are often used in conjunction with authorization objects to define what actions a user can perform.
    • Authorization Objects: These are the building blocks of the SAP authorization concept. They define the fields that are checked during authorization checks.
    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU53: Display authorization check failure.
