The SAP error message AA954 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to maintain assets in a specific view within the Asset Accounting (FI-AA) module. This error typically arises when a user attempts to access or modify asset data but lacks the required permissions.
Cause:
- Authorization Issues: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorizations for the specific asset view they are trying to access (e.g., master data, transactions, etc.).
- Missing Authorization Objects: The relevant authorization objects related to asset management may not be assigned to the user’s profile.
- View-Specific Restrictions: Certain views may have additional restrictions based on organizational policies or configurations.
Solution:
Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in the SAP system. Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include asset management authorizations.
Review Authorization Objects: Check the relevant authorization objects for Asset Accounting, such as:
- F_LFA1_AKT (Vendor Master)
- F_AA_ALL (Asset Accounting)
- F_AA_AKT (Asset Master Data)
- F_AA_BW (Asset Accounting: Authorization for Asset Transactions)
Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for the specific views they need to access.
Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary access to modify roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security or basis team to request the required authorizations.
Transaction Codes: Use transaction codes like SU01 (User Maintenance) to check user roles and SU53 (Authorization Check) to analyze authorization failures.
Testing: After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.

SAP messages fall into 3 different categories: Error messages
(message type = E), Warnings (W) or Informational (I) messages.
An error message will prevent you from continuing your work - it is a hard stop and you need to fix the error before you can proceed. A warning message will stop your work, however, you can then bypass the warning by pressing the Enter key on your keyboard. That said, it is still good practice to investigate the cause of the warning message and address it. An information message will not stop your work and is truly just for informational purposes.
