  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /BOBF/LIBRARY001 - Action &1 not permitted ?

    The SAP error message /BOBF/LIBRARY001 Action &1 not permitted typically occurs in the context of the Business Object Processing Framework (BOPF) in SAP. This error indicates that a specific action (denoted by &1) is not allowed for the current context or user.

    Causes:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the specified action.
    2. Business Logic Restrictions: The action may be restricted based on the business logic defined in the BOPF model. For example, certain actions may only be allowed in specific states of the business object.
    3. Configuration Errors: There may be misconfigurations in the BOPF model or the associated business object that prevent the action from being executed.
    4. Object State: The business object may be in a state that does not permit the action to be executed (e.g., an object that is locked or in a read-only state).

    Solutions:

    1. Check Authorizations:

      • Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the action. This can be done by checking the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system.
      • Use transaction SU53 to analyze authorization failures after the error occurs.
    2. Review BOPF Configuration:

      • Check the BOPF configuration for the business object to ensure that the action is correctly defined and permitted in the relevant contexts.
      • Ensure that the action is not restricted by any conditions or validations that may be in place.
    3. Check Object State:

      • Investigate the state of the business object to ensure it is in a valid state for the action to be executed. If the object is locked or in a read-only state, you may need to change its state or unlock it.
    4. Debugging:

      • If you have access to the development environment, you can debug the BOPF action to see why it is being rejected. This may provide insights into any underlying issues.
    5. Consult Documentation:

      • Review the SAP documentation related to the specific BOPF model and the action in question. This may provide additional context on the restrictions and requirements for the action.
    6. Contact Support:

      • If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support or your internal SAP support team for further assistance.

    Related Information:

    • BOPF Documentation: Familiarize yourself with the BOPF framework and its components, as understanding the architecture can help in troubleshooting.
    • Transaction Codes: Use relevant transaction codes such as SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE11 (Data Dictionary) to explore the business object definitions and their actions.
    • SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to the specific error message or the BOPF model you are working with, as there may be known issues or patches available.

    By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a suitable solution.

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.
