  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UG00006 - &1 when calling up transaction &2 ?

    The SAP error message UG00006 typically indicates that there is an issue related to the user group or authorization when trying to access a specific transaction. The message format usually looks like this: "User group &1 is not allowed to call up transaction &2," where &1 represents the user group and &2 represents the transaction code.

    Cause:

    1. User Group Restrictions: The user group assigned to the user does not have the necessary authorizations to execute the specified transaction.
    2. Authorization Profiles: The authorization profile linked to the user group may not include the required permissions for the transaction.
    3. Transaction Configuration: The transaction itself may have restrictions based on user groups or roles.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Group Assignment: Verify the user group assigned to the user. This can be done in the user master record (transaction SU01).
    2. Review Authorizations: Check the authorization profiles associated with the user group. You can use transaction PFCG to review and modify roles and authorizations.
    3. Modify User Group Settings: If necessary, adjust the settings for the user group to include the required transaction. This may involve adding the transaction to the authorization profile.
    4. Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to resolve the issue.
    5. Transaction Configuration: If the transaction has specific configuration settings that restrict access, review those settings to ensure that the user group is allowed to access the transaction.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with the transaction codes relevant to user management and authorization, such as SU01 (User Maintenance), PFCG (Role Maintenance), and SU53 (Authorization Check).
    • SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues related to this error message.
    • Documentation: Review SAP documentation regarding user groups and authorization management for best practices and guidelines.
