• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UCC2014 - No authorization to modify saved comment ?

  The SAP error message UCC2014, which states "No authorization to modify saved comment," typically occurs when a user attempts to modify a comment or note in a transaction or document but lacks the necessary authorization to do so. This can happen in various SAP modules, such as SAP CRM, SAP ERP, or others where comments are used.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to modify comments. This is often related to the user's role or profile in the SAP system.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured in a way that restricts certain users from modifying comments.
  Document Status: The document or transaction may be in a status that does not allow modifications, including comments.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization object is missing.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction PFCG to ensure they have the necessary permissions to modify comments.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, a security administrator or SAP Basis team member should update the user's role to include the required authorization objects (e.g., S_TCODE, S_USER_AUTH, etc.).
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings related to comments in the specific module being used. Ensure that the settings allow the intended modifications for the user roles.
  
  
  
  Document Status:
  
  Verify the status of the document or transaction. If it is locked or in a status that does not permit changes, the user may need to wait until the document is in an editable state.

  Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific authorization objects related to comments in the relevant module.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
