• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WB2B131 - You do not have the authoritization to display all documents ?

  The SAP error message WB2B131, which states "You do not have the authorization to display all documents," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary permissions to view certain documents or data within the SAP system. This can occur in various modules, particularly in the context of document management or business transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user’s role or profile does not include the necessary authorizations to access specific documents or transaction codes.
  Missing Authorization Objects: The required authorization objects for the transaction or document type are not assigned to the user.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be configured correctly to allow access to the required documents.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in the SAP system. This can be done by navigating to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and checking the roles assigned to the user.
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects: Identify the specific authorization objects that are required for the transaction or document type. This can be done using transaction code SU53 immediately after receiving the error message, which will show the last authorization check and help identify what is missing.
  
  
  Modify Roles: If the necessary authorizations are missing, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user’s roles to include the required authorization objects. This can be done using transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  Testing: After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about which authorization objects are needed, consult SAP documentation or your organization’s SAP security team for guidance.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to document display might include S_DATA, S_TABU_DIS, or specific objects related to the module in use (e.g., MM, SD, FI).
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SU01, PFCG, and SU53 for user and role management.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that might address specific issues or provide additional guidance on authorization problems.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to escalate the issue to your SAP Basis or security team for further investigation.
