• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WEBFI_MASTER211 - No authorization to create address data using the Web ?

  The SAP error message WEBFI_MASTER211: No authorization to create address data using the Web typically occurs when a user tries to create or maintain address data via a web interface (such as SAP CRM Web UI or a web-based front end) but lacks the necessary authorizations.
  
  Cause
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization objects or roles assigned to create or modify address data through the web interface.
  Insufficient Role Assignment: The roles assigned to the user do not include permissions for the specific business function or transaction related to address data creation.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects controlling address data creation (e.g., B_BUPA_GRP, B_BUPA_FU, or web-specific authorization objects) are not properly maintained for the user.
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check User Roles and Authorizations
