  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CP231 - You have no authorization for usage & ?

    The SAP error message CP231 ("You have no authorization for usage &") typically indicates that a user is attempting to access a transaction, report, or function for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can occur in various SAP modules, including Controlling (CO), where the error might relate to cost centers, internal orders, or other controlling objects.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorization Object: The user lacks the necessary authorization object that governs access to the specific transaction or function.
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate role that includes the required authorizations.
    3. Authorization Profile: The authorization profile assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific usage.
    4. Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may have access to certain organizational levels but not to others, leading to restricted access to specific data or functions.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
    2. Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization objects are missing. This transaction provides a detailed view of the last authorization check and can help identify what is lacking.
    3. Modify Roles: If the user is missing the required authorizations, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations.
    4. Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the transaction again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
    5. Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or consult with your SAP security team for specific authorization objects related to the transaction or function being accessed.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to controlling might include C_TCODE (Transaction Code), C_KTBL (Cost Center), and others depending on the specific function being accessed.
    • Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as PFCG (Role Maintenance) for role management and SU01 for user management.
    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or updates related to authorization errors, as there may be specific patches or recommendations from SAP.

    If the problem persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to engage with your SAP Basis or security team for further investigation.

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.
