Aggregation authorization within analysis authorizations

[Former Member]

Hello,

The BW developers have created several queries that use aggregated data. When testing the queries with the end user ID (assigned to an end user role and analysis authorization), it is failing due to missing authorizations, particularly b/c of the following:

Supplementation of Selection for Aggregated

Characteristics

Check Added for Aggregation Authorization: 0COMP_CODE

Check Added for Aggregation Authorization: 0PLANT

All Authorizations Tested

Message EYE007: You Do Not Have Sufficient Authorization

No Sufficient Authorization for This Subselection (SUBNR)

Following CHANMIDs Are Affected:

142 ( 0COMP_CODE )

189 ( 0PLANT )

192 ( 0SALESORG )

In the BI documentation, it specifies that : (colon): allows only aggregated access to data (e.g. allows information on all sales areas only on aggregated level –not on particular countries). Is this ( specified as a value within the particular characteristics? I also tried to select the "aggregation authorization" icon within txn code RSECADMIN and this did not help.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

Updated: For the analysis authorization, for these characteristics, in addition to the specific values, there is an entry for ":" and this did not resolve the issue.

Hi Julie,

Not sure if you're still interested, but I think your check is having a problem on Sales Org.

In the query statement, it reads:

SALES

ORG = '0403'

In the auth check, it reads:

0SALESORG I EQ 0301

I EQ 0341

I EQ :

That might have been a type-O on your part, but if not, that's the answer.

Cheers,
