• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message 1P180 - No authorization for creating planned payment items ?

  The SAP error message 1P180 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to create planned payment items in the system. This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions, such as payment processing or accounts payable.
  Cause:
  The error is primarily caused by insufficient authorization roles or permissions assigned to the user trying to perform the action. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user lacks the required authorization object that allows them to create planned payment items.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role does not include the necessary permissions for the transaction code or function they are trying to execute.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured to include the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 to check the user’s roles and profiles. Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for creating planned payment items.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user is missing the required authorization, you may need to modify their roles. This can be done using transaction code PFCG:
  
  Identify the role that needs modification.
  Add the necessary authorization objects related to payment processing (e.g., F_BKPF_BUK, F_BKPF_AKT, etc.).
  Generate the profile after making changes.
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security or basis team to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to create the planned payment items again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU53: Display authorization check.
  SU01: User maintenance.
  PFCG: Role maintenance.
  
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization’s internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
