Symptom
An authorization error occurs during the simulation step of object "Fixed asset - Master data" in the Migrate Your Data app.
Error message: "You don't have authorization for company code <XXXX>, asset class <YYYYYYYY>."
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Open the Migrate Your Data app.
- Select the corresponding migration project that contains the migration object "Fixed asset - Master data".
- Ensure the instances have been populated with fixed asset data and the preparation step has been completed successfully, choose the action Simulate.
- The simulation fails and the following error message appears: "You don't have authorization for company code <XXXX>, asset class <YYYYYYYY>."
Cause
Restrictions in the assigned business roles prevent authorization during the simulation.
Resolution
- Open the “Maintain Business Roles” app.
- Identify the business roles assigned to the user performing the Fixed Assets migration.
- Ensure the required asset migration business catalogs are assigned to the role (SAP_FIN_BC_AA_MDAT_LDT_PC and SAP_FIN_BC_AA_MDAT_REG_PC).
- In each relevant business role, open the Restrictions section and review authorizations for company code and asset class.
- Adjust the restrictions to Unrestricted or include the specific values (target company code and asset class) as needed for Read, Write, and Value Help.
- Save the changes and re-run the simulation in the Migrate Your Data app to confirm the issue is resolved.
