• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UDDICL026 - Not authorized to start report '&1' ?

  The SAP error message UDDICL026 indicates that a user is not authorized to start a specific report, which is represented by the placeholder &1. This error typically arises when a user attempts to execute a report or transaction for which they do not have the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user lacks the required authorization object or role that grants access to the report.
  Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate role that includes the necessary permissions.
  Authorization Object: The authorization object related to the report may not be properly configured or may not include the user.
  Profile Issues: The user’s profile may not be updated or may not include the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that the role containing the necessary authorizations for the report is included.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction 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 SUIM (User Information System) to analyze user authorizations and roles.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user is missing the necessary role, you may need to assign it to them. This can be done by a user administrator.
  If the role exists but does not contain the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the role using transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to include the required authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to assist in resolving the authorization issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the report execution again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
