  Error Message
  VFRR054: You are not authorized to display data in company code &1
  
  Cause
  This error occurs because the user does not have the necessary authorization to display or access data for the specified company code in the SAP system. The authorization check fails when the user tries to view data related to that company code, typically in modules like Financial Accounting (FI), Controlling (CO), or other areas where company code-specific data is protected.
  
  Explanation
  
  SAP uses authorization objects to control access to company code data.
  The relevant authorization object for company code access is usually F_BKPF_BUK (Accounting Document: Authorization for Company Codes).
  If the user’s role or profile does not include the required authorization for the company code in question, the system will prevent access and show this error.
  This is a standard security measure to ensure that users only see data for company codes they are permitted to access.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check which authorization check failed.
  Alternatively, use ST01 (Authorization Trace) to trace the authorization check.
  
  
  
  Identify Missing Authorization:
  
  Look for missing authorization objects related to company code access, typically F_BKPF_BUK or similar.
  
  
  
  Update User Roles:
  
  Contact your SAP Security or Basis team.
  Request that the user’s role(s) be updated to include the necessary authorization for the company code(s) they need to access.
  This involves adding the company code(s) to the authorization object in the user’s role.
  
  
  
  Role Maintenance:
  
  Use transaction PFCG to maintain roles.
  In the role, navigate to the Authorizations tab.
  Edit the authorization object F_BKPF_BUK (or relevant object).
  Add the required company code(s) to the authorization field.
  Generate and assign the updated role to the user.
  
  
  
  Test Access:
  
  After role update, have the user log off and log back in.
  Retry the transaction to confirm the error is resolved.
