  Error Message
  WTY143: Authorization &1 does not exist
  
  &1 is a placeholder for the specific authorization object or authorization that the system could not find.
  
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when the SAP system tries to check or assign an authorization object that is not defined or does not exist in the system's authorization repository.
  Common scenarios include:
  
  The authorization object referenced in a role, profile, or user assignment is missing or has been deleted.
  A custom authorization object was created but not transported properly to the current system.
  The system is trying to validate an authorization that is not available in the current SAP system version or client.
  Inconsistent or incomplete transport of roles or authorizations between SAP systems (e.g., from development to production).
  
  
  Solution
  
  
  Check the Authorization Object:
  
  Identify the exact authorization object or authorization mentioned in the error message (replace &1 with the actual object).
  Use transaction SU21 (Maintain Authorization Objects) to verify if the authorization object exists.
  If it does not exist, it needs to be created or restored.
  
  
  
  Check Role and Profile Assignments:
  
  Use transaction PFCG to check the roles assigned to the user.
  Verify if the role contains references to the missing authorization object.
  If yes, remove or correct the authorization object in the role.
  
  
  
  Transport Issues:
  
  If the authorization object is custom and missing, check the transport requests.
  Ensure that the authorization object and related roles have been transported correctly to the target system.
  Re-transport if necessary.
  
  
  
  System Consistency:
  
  Run consistency checks for roles and authorizations.
  Use transaction SUIM to analyze user authorizations and roles.
  Check for inconsistencies or missing objects.
