• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UCUW001 - No authorization to display ?

  The SAP error message UCUW001: No authorization to display typically indicates that a user is attempting to access a transaction, report, or data for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can occur in various contexts within SAP, such as when trying to view certain reports, access specific modules, or perform certain actions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user does not have the required authorization roles assigned to their user profile.
  Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects required for the action are not included in the user's roles.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured or may have been changed recently.
  Transaction Restrictions: Certain transactions may have restrictions based on user roles or organizational levels.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:

  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that the necessary roles for the required transaction/report are included.

  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify roles, contact your SAP security or basis team to request the necessary authorizations.
  Provide them with the details of the error and the transaction you were trying to access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After changes are made to the user roles or authorizations, log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Attempt to access the transaction/report again to verify if the issue is resolved.
