• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /ACCGO/DGR204 - Only 01, 02 or 03 activity is allowed to check authorization ?

  The SAP error message /ACCGO/DGR204 Only 01, 02 or 03 activity is allowed to check authorization typically occurs in the context of the SAP General Ledger (G/L) accounting module, particularly when dealing with document postings or financial transactions. This error indicates that the system is enforcing specific authorization checks based on the activity type being performed.
  Cause:
  The error is triggered when a user attempts to perform an action that requires a specific authorization activity code, but the activity code does not match the allowed values (01, 02, or 03). These activity codes generally correspond to the following:
  
  01: Create
  02: Change
  03: Display
  
  If the user is trying to perform an action that is not one of these activities (for example, an action that requires a different activity code), the system will raise this error.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for the activity they are trying to perform. This can be done by reviewing the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Review Activity Codes:
  
  Verify that the action being attempted corresponds to one of the allowed activity codes (01, 02, or 03). If the action is not valid, the user should be instructed to perform an action that is allowed.
  
  
  
  Adjust Authorization Objects:
  
  If necessary, modify the authorization objects associated with the user's roles to include the required activity codes. This may involve working with your SAP security team to ensure that the appropriate roles and authorizations are assigned.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific transaction or process being executed to ensure compliance with the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, test the action again to see if the error persists.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SU01, PFCG, and SU53 (to analyze authorization failures).
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes that may provide additional context or solutions related to this error message.
  Authorization Concept: Understanding the SAP authorization concept, including roles, profiles, and authorization objects, can help in troubleshooting similar issues in the future.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP Basis or Security team for further investigation.
