• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BEV1/EMC730 - No data has been selected due to missing authorization ?

  The SAP error message /BEV1/EMC730 No data has been selected due to missing authorization typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to access the data or perform the action they are attempting in the SAP system. This error is often encountered in the context of SAP Business Warehouse (BW) or SAP BusinessObjects, where data access is tightly controlled through authorization objects.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorizations for the specific data source, InfoProvider, or query they are trying to access.
  Authorization Objects: The relevant authorization objects may not be assigned to the user’s role or profile.
  Data Restrictions: There may be restrictions based on organizational levels, such as company codes, plants, or other dimensions that the user is not authorized to view.
  Role Assignment: The user may not have the correct roles assigned in their user profile.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization checks failed. This transaction provides a detailed view of the authorization checks that were performed and which ones were not met.
  
  
  
  Review Roles and Profiles:
  
  Go to transaction PFCG to review the roles assigned to the user. Ensure that the necessary roles that include the required authorization objects are assigned.
  If the user does not have the necessary roles, you may need to assign them or request that they be assigned by a security administrator.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the user needs access to specific data, you may need to modify the authorization objects in the relevant roles to include the necessary authorizations.
  This may involve adding specific values for organizational levels or other criteria that the user needs to access.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance. Provide them with the details of the error and the context in which it occurred.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects that control access to the data in question. Common objects in BW include S_BI_WA (for BW authorizations) and S_BI_CONT (for content access).
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or internal guidelines on user roles and authorizations to understand how to manage and troubleshoot authorization issues effectively.
  Transaction Codes: Besides SU53 and PFCG, other useful transaction codes include SU01 (User Maintenance) and SUIM (User Information System) for checking user authorizations.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the authorization issue and implement a solution to resolve the error message.
