We have debugged the program MEREP_REPLICATOR_START in foreground, it displays authorization issue.

The user used in all the steps of the job WAIO_REPLICATE_THEN_DISTRIBUTE must have authorization to u201C ALM_MEREP_* u201C function groups.

It displays "No authorization for function group ALM_MEREP_090"

Please let us know what action should be taken as per above so that it will display no authorization issue

Thanks in Advance

Regards,

Max

Hi,

The best option is to take a trace via ST01 instaed of su53. It too early to comment whether it has any link with the s_rfc though in s_rfc there is a field for Funtion Group. In case of RFC related issues we also need to take a Trace in the target system. But first thing run a trace report and analyse the authorization problem. Check for the RC=4 issues.

Hi Max,

1) Please run SU53 after getting missing authorization and check the dump for missing authorization details.

2) If you are not getting any missing authorizations in SU53, please do the authorization tracing by using ST01.

Procedure:

Trace on in ST01

Asked the user to execute the same action till that authorization error gets.

Trace off and check the authorization error.

Hi

From the message it appears background user you are using does not have access to function group - ALM_MEREP_090. You need to add function group value in S_RFC.However keep the trace active so you can trace if there any further function group failure.

Let us know.

Check ST01 trace as already mentioned in other posts.

If you have executed in Foreground, then it is not a Job execution. If you have processed it in background thean what is the type of user used to execute the steps?

When you are getting this message?

This sounds like a "setup wizard".

If it is generating the SYSTEM user as well with a standard profile, then check SAP Notes for corrections to missing function groups.

If it is using your own ID which is running the wizard, then create a SERVICE user to set it up, then change the user type to SYSTEM and deactivate the password (unless it is used for a connection by the wizard) after setting it up. Run a trace on the jobs of the user and check that it's authority is correct.

The setup might need more authority than the recurring job, and your own ID should not be immortalized in the system...

Cheers,
