Resolution

To ensure that the user trying to create an object has the required authorization, please follow these guidelines:

Authorization Object: FDT_OBJECT

Ensure the user has the following values set for the following fields in the authorization object:

  1. FDT_APPL: This field should contain the allowed names for the created object. For example:

    • If the user wants to create an object in the OPD namespace, this field must be filled with the value OPD*.
    • For custom objects, the typical values used are Y* or Z*.
  2. FDT_OBJTYP: Set this to AP.

  3. FDT_ACT: Set this to 1 (Create).

Steps for User Authorization

Contact the security administrator to ensure the user is assigned a role that includes the specified values for the FDT_OBJECT authorization object.

Example

For a user who needs to create an object in the OPD namespace:

  • FDT_APPL: OPD*
  • FDT_OBJTYP: AP
  • FDT_ACT: 1 (Create)
