  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WFRE_CON206 - No authority for transaction FRE14 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation regarding the SAP error message WFRE_CON206 No authority for transaction FRE14:


    Error Message

    WFRE_CON206 No authority for transaction FRE14


    Cause

    This error occurs because the user attempting to execute the transaction FRE14 does not have the necessary authorization to do so. In SAP, each transaction code requires specific authorizations assigned via roles and profiles. If these authorizations are missing or insufficient, the system prevents the user from running the transaction and throws this error.

    Transaction FRE14 is related to SAP Flexible Real Estate Management (RE-FX) and is used for posting rent invoices or rent settlement postings.


    Solution

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Verify if the user has the required authorization objects assigned to execute transaction FRE14.
      • Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the missing authorizations.
      • Alternatively, check the authorization trace via ST01 to identify which authorization check failed.
    2. Assign Appropriate Roles:

      • Identify the role(s) that contain the authorization for transaction FRE14.
      • Common authorization objects related to RE-FX transactions include:
        • FRE_AUTH (Authorization for RE-FX)
        • S_TCODE (Authorization for transaction codes)
      • Ensure the user has a role with S_TCODE = FRE14 and other relevant RE-FX authorizations.
    3. Role Maintenance:

      • Use transaction PFCG to maintain or create roles.
      • Add transaction FRE14 to the role menu.
      • Assign the role to the user.
    4. Testing:

      • After role assignment, ask the user to log off and log back in.
      • Test the transaction FRE14 again.

    Additional Information

    • Transaction FRE14 is part of the SAP Real Estate Flexible Management module (RE-FX).
    • Authorization objects related to RE-FX are often complex because they control access to sensitive financial and contract data.
    • If you are unsure which roles to assign, consult your SAP security team or check the standard SAP roles delivered for RE-FX.
    • Sometimes, custom roles are created to restrict access to specific business functions within RE-FX.
