• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WGDS_CONFIRMATION122 - User &1 is not authorized to display confirmations ?

  The SAP error message:
  WGDS_CONFIRMATION122 User &1 is not authorized to display confirmations
  
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs because the user (&1 represents the username) does not have the necessary authorization to display or access production order confirmations in SAP. Specifically, the user lacks the required authorization object(s) or authorization field values that control access to confirmation data.
  
  Explanation:
  In SAP, access to production order confirmations is controlled by authorization objects such as:
  
  C_AUFK_AUS (Authorizations for order processing)
  C_AUFV_VKO (Authorizations for confirmation)
  C_AUFV_AUF (Authorizations for order confirmation)
  
  If the user does not have the appropriate activity (e.g., display, change) or the correct order type, plant, or other relevant fields assigned in their roles, the system will prevent them from displaying confirmations and raise this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU01 to check the user’s assigned roles.
  Use transaction SUIM to analyze the user’s authorizations and roles.
  
  
  
  Identify Missing Authorization Objects:
  
  Verify that the user has the authorization objects related to production order confirmations, especially:
  C_AUFV_VKO
