Authorisation check: Data not in user buffer

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have just cretaed a new role in PFCG and generated it and assigned a user to it. This role only has 2 transactions assigned.

I have created it in development system and tested it in QA system. Everything was fine. I then transported it to production and assigned the user again.

I asked the user to log off and log back on and test the transactions for which i created the role for.

When the user tried, an error was returned with no authorisation to that transaction.

When i go to SU53 to display the authorisation data check for that user, it says beside the Autorisation profile under the Authorisation Data for that user:

"Exists in the master data, but not in the user buffer"

I have searched on this but to no avail. I would have tought that by login off and login back on the user buffer would have been regenerated/updtaed but the issue remains despite several attempts.

How come did it work in QA and not in Prod. (QA is a copy of Prod)

How do i get to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

We also encountered the message "Exists in the master data, but not in the user buffer".

The issue was resolved by using transaction SU56, and changing to the user that was having the issue and from the menu Authorization Values >  "Reset User Buffer".

Hi ,

What's the reason behind this message "Available in the master data, but not in the user buffer " and why does it happen suddenly ?

Thanks
