• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message V7057 - No authorization for view selection (&) ?

  The SAP error message V7057, which states "No authorization for view selection (&)," typically occurs when a user attempts to access a view or transaction in SAP for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can happen in various modules, particularly in Sales and Distribution (SD) or other areas where views are used to display or manipulate data.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization object to access the specific view or transaction.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the view they are trying to access.
  View Configuration: The view itself may be configured in a way that restricts access based on certain criteria or user roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user. This can be done by navigating to the user management transaction (e.g., SU01) and checking the roles assigned to the user.
  Review Authorization Objects: Identify the specific authorization objects related to the view in question. This can be done using transaction SU53, which shows the last authorization check and can help identify what is missing.
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This typically requires access to transaction PFCG (Profile Generator).
  Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to view access in SAP include V_VBAK_VKO (Sales Document: Authorization for Sales Area) and V_VBRK_VKO (Billing Document: Authorization for Sales Area).
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  PFCG: Role Maintenance
  SU53: Display Authorization Check
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the V7057 error and ensure that the user has the appropriate access to the required views.
