  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBDYNPRO_RT019 - You are not authorized to start Web Dynpro application & ?

    The SAP error message WEBDYNPRO_RT019: You are not authorized to start Web Dynpro application & indicates an authorization issue when a user tries to launch a Web Dynpro application.


    Cause

    • The user does not have the required authorization to execute or start the specified Web Dynpro application.
    • This usually means the user is missing one or more authorization objects or roles that grant access to the Web Dynpro application.
    • The authorization check fails at runtime, preventing the application from starting.

    Solution

    1. Identify the Web Dynpro Application Name:

      • The message usually contains the application name (replacing the & placeholder).
      • Note down the application name for further analysis.
    2. Check Required Authorization Objects:

      • Web Dynpro applications typically require authorization objects such as:
        • S_WDY_APPL (Web Dynpro Application)
        • S_WDY_CONT (Web Dynpro Component)
        • S_WDY_FPM (Floorplan Manager, if applicable)
      • The exact authorization objects depend on the application and system configuration.
    3. Use SU53 to Analyze Authorization Check:

      • Have the user reproduce the error.
      • Immediately after, run transaction SU53 to display the last failed authorization check.
      • This will show which authorization object and field values are missing.
    4. Assign Appropriate Roles:

      • Based on the SU53 output, assign the necessary roles or authorizations to the user.
      • Roles containing the required Web Dynpro application/component authorizations should be assigned via PFCG.
      • If no standard role exists, create a custom role with the required authorizations.
    5. Test Access:

      • After role assignment, have the user try to start the Web Dynpro application again.
      • The error should no longer appear if authorizations are correctly assigned.

    Related Information

    • Transaction PFCG: Role maintenance to assign or create roles with required authorizations.
