  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VH102 - Access & is not available ?

    SAP Error Message:
    VH102 - Access & is not available


    Cause:

    The error message VH102 typically occurs when a user tries to access a transaction, function, or object in SAP for which they do not have the necessary authorization or access rights. The placeholder "&" in the message is replaced by the specific object or access that is not available to the user.

    In other words, the system is indicating that the user does not have the required permissions to perform the requested action.


    Common Scenarios:

    • Attempting to access a transaction code or report without proper authorization.
    • Trying to perform an operation on an object (e.g., a business object, table, or function module) that the user is not authorized to use.
    • Missing or incorrect role assignments in the user master record.
    • Authorization objects related to the specific function are not assigned or are incomplete.

    Solution:

    1. Identify the missing access:

      • Check the exact text replacing "&" in the error message to understand which access or object is missing.
      • Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to display the last authorization check failure. This will show which authorization object and field values caused the denial.
    2. Analyze user authorizations:

      • Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
      • Check if the roles assigned to the user contain the necessary authorization objects and values.
    3. Adjust authorizations:

      • If the user legitimately requires access, update the roles to include the missing authorizations.
      • This may involve adding or modifying authorization objects in the role(s) via PFCG.
      • After changes, regenerate and assign the updated roles to the user.
    4. Testing:

      • Have the user log off and log back in to refresh authorizations.
      • Retry the transaction or function to confirm the issue is resolved.
    5. Consult Basis or Security team:

      • If you do not have authorization to change roles, coordinate with your SAP Security or Basis team to resolve the issue.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction SU53: Displays the last authorization check failure for the current user.
    • Transaction PFCG: Role maintenance and authorization management.
    • Transaction SU01: User maintenance.
    • Authorization Objects: SAP uses authorization objects to control access. Understanding which object is missing is key to resolving VH102.
    • SAP Notes: Sometimes, specific SAP Notes may address known issues related to authorization errors.

    Summary:

    • Cause: User lacks required authorization for the requested access.
    • Solution: Use SU53 to identify missing authorizations, then update user roles in PFCG accordingly.
    • Related Tools: SU53, PFCG, SU01.

    If you provide the exact text replacing "&" or the context in which the error occurs, I can help you with more specific guidance.
