• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UMB195 - You are not authorized to print the measure '&1' ?

  The SAP error message UMB195, which states "You are not authorized to print the measure '&1'," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to perform the printing action for a specific measure in the SAP system. This can occur in various contexts, such as when working with SAP Business Warehouse (BW) or SAP Analytics.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization object or role that allows printing for the specified measure.
  Measure Configuration: The measure may be configured in a way that restricts access to certain users or roles.
  User Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct role that includes permissions for printing measures.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed.
  Review the authorization objects related to printing measures (e.g., S_TABU_DIS, S_USER_AUTH, etc.).

  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the user's roles to include the required authorizations.
  Alternatively, contact your SAP security administrator to request the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Measure Settings:
  
  Check the configuration of the measure in the relevant SAP module (e.g., BW) to ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no restrictions on printing.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to authorizations or roles, test the printing functionality again to ensure that the issue is resolved.
