How To Fix UE202 - Object &1 has already been delivered; only restricted changes possible

UE202 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: UE - Messages in the user and authorizations environment

• Message number: 202

• Message text: Object &1 has already been delivered; only restricted changes possible

What causes this issue?

The field list of an authorization object has a significant effect on
the consistency of the authorization concepts. Changes might have a
disruptive effect on:
The desired result of authorization checks
The consistency of authorization default values for applications
The authorization maintenance in the Profile Generator
The consistency of transaction definitions
The definition of authorization templates, organizational units, and
other objects
If an authorization object has already been transported to other systems
(exported), the original developer can no longer control its use. It is
therefore no longer possible to be sure of making a universally
consistent change to the field properties of the object.
Additional changes can be made to object properties that do not have a
direct influence on authorization checks (short text, documentation,
permissible activities, SAP_NEW classification).

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

If the field list of the authorization object no longer meets your
needs, move the object to the "obsolete authorization objects" object
class and create a suitable new authorization object.
