  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP146 - User &2 has no authorization for planning scenario &1 ?

    Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:


    SAP Error Message:

    WXP146 User &2 has no authorization for planning scenario &1


    Cause:

    This error occurs when a user tries to access or execute a planning scenario in SAP (typically in SAP Business Planning and Consolidation - BPC or SAP BW Integrated Planning) but does not have the necessary authorizations assigned for that specific planning scenario.

    • The placeholder &2 represents the user ID.
    • The placeholder &1 represents the planning scenario name or ID.

    In other words, the system checks the user's authorizations against the planning scenario and finds that the user lacks the required permissions to perform planning activities in that scenario.


    Solution:

    To resolve this error, you need to ensure that the user has the correct authorizations for the planning scenario:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Verify the roles and authorizations assigned to the user in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
      • Identify the authorization objects related to planning scenarios, such as:
        • S_RS_AUTH (Authorization for BW queries and planning)
        • S_RS_COMP (BW components)
        • S_RS_PLANNING (Planning authorizations)
        • Or specific BPC authorization roles if using BPC.
    2. Assign Required Roles:

      • Assign the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorization objects and values for the planning scenario.
      • For example, in BW Integrated Planning, the user needs authorization for the InfoProvider, planning function, and planning sequence.
      • In BPC, assign the user to the relevant BPC role that grants access to the planning scenario.
    3. Check Planning Scenario Configuration:

      • Confirm that the planning scenario is correctly configured and that the authorization objects are properly maintained.
      • Sometimes, the planning scenario might have specific authorization requirements configured in the system.
    4. Test Access:

      • After assigning the roles, ask the user to log off and log back in, then retry the planning activity.
      • If the error persists, double-check the roles and authorization objects.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SU01 - User maintenance
      • PFCG - Role maintenance
      • RSPLAN - BW Planning
      • RSRSECADMIN - BW Security Administration
    • Authorization Objects:

      • S_RS_AUTH - BW Query and Planning Authorization
      • S_RS_COMP - BW Component Authorization
      • S_RS_PLANNING - BW Planning Authorization
    • SAP Notes and Documentation:

      • Check SAP Notes related to planning authorization issues.
      • Refer to SAP Help Portal for BW Integrated Planning or BPC security setup.

    Summary:

    The error WXP146 indicates a missing authorization for the user on the specified planning scenario. The fix involves assigning the correct roles and authorizations to the user to enable access to that planning scenario.


    If you provide the exact SAP module or context (e.g., BPC, BW Integrated Planning), I can give more tailored instructions.
