  SAP Error Message: WP3ROLES022
  Text: Assignment of authorization role &1 to user &2 has been revoked
  
  Cause:
  This message indicates that an authorization role (specified by &1) that was previously assigned to a user (specified by &2) has been revoked or removed. This typically happens when:
  
  The role was explicitly removed from the user in the user master record (transaction SU01).
  The role assignment was revoked due to a change in role assignment policies or during a role cleanup process.
  The system or an administrator revoked the role assignment as part of a security or compliance action.
  The user’s role assignment was revoked automatically by a workflow or program (e.g., during role transport or role maintenance).
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve or handle this message, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Verify Role Assignment:
  
  Check the user master record in transaction SU01 or PFCG to confirm if the role is indeed removed.
  If the role is required for the user, reassign the role to the user.
  
  
  
  Check Role Maintenance Logs:
  
  Review change documents for the user or role to understand when and why the role was revoked.
  Use transaction SUIM (User Information System) to track role assignments and changes.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Concept:
  
  Confirm that the role revocation aligns with your organization's security policies.
  If the role was revoked unintentionally, restore the role assignment.
  
  
  
  Communicate with Security Team:
  
  If the revocation was part of a security audit or cleanup, coordinate with the security or BASIS team to understand the context.
  
  
  
  Check for Automated Processes:
  
  Investigate if any automated role assignment or revocation programs or workflows are running that might have caused this.
