• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /IWFND/CM_DESIGNTIME029 - No authorization to delete BOP configuration ?

  The SAP error message /IWFND/CM_DESIGNTIME029 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to delete a Business Object Processing (BOP) configuration in the SAP Gateway. This typically occurs in the context of managing OData services and their associated configurations.
  Cause:
  The error is primarily caused by insufficient authorizations assigned to the user trying to perform the delete operation. The specific authorization object that is usually involved in this scenario is S_IWFND_APPL or similar, which governs access to the SAP Gateway and its configurations.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Authorizations:
  
  If you identify that the user lacks the required authorization, you will need to assign the appropriate roles or authorizations. This can be done by:
  
  Using transaction PFCG to modify the user's roles.
  Adding the necessary authorization objects to the role that the user is assigned.
  
  
  
  
  
  Authorization Object:
  
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for the following:
  
  S_IWFND_APPL: This object controls access to the OData services and configurations.
  Check for any other relevant authorization objects that might be specific to your organization's security policies.
  
  
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Attempt the delete operation again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
