• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message UMM_CUSTDATA032 - No authorization to change the affected wall '&1' ?

  The SAP error message UMM_CUSTDATA032 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to change a specific wall (or object) identified by the placeholder &1. This error typically arises in the context of SAP's User Management Engine (UME) or when dealing with authorization objects related to customizing or managing data.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user attempting to make changes does not have the required authorizations assigned in their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations related to the specific object or wall.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions to modify the wall in question.
  Object Locking: The wall might be locked by another user or process, preventing changes from being made.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed and why.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to add the required roles or adjust the existing roles to include the necessary permissions for the wall.
  Ensure that the roles are properly assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to modify roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required changes.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  Verify if the wall is locked by another user or process. If it is, you may need to wait until the lock is released or contact the user who has locked it.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, test the changes by attempting to perform the action again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that control access to the specific wall or object you are trying to modify.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or additional guidance related to this error message.
