Error while running the query

Question

Hi Friends,
I am getting this error when I execute the query.
Error message :
Warning You do not have authorization to read object ZCOMPCODE 'Company Code'.
Only I get this error, my friends can execute the same report w/o any issues.
Can anyone suggest me the solution for this happening.
Regards,

Hello BW USER,
ZCOMPCODE is the name of the authorization object that is validated in the query.
This authorization object can have any name and inside is validating InfoObject or InfoObjects.
In your case ZCOMPCODE probably have 0COMP_CODE inside and that characteristic you might have in your query.
If you're using the old obsolete authorization of BW 3.x go to transaction RSSM and insert ZCOMPCODE in your authorization object and choose display you will see the characteristics that exist in that authorization object.
If you're using the new analysis authorization of BI 7 go to transaction RSECADMIN and choose actualization and insert ZCOMPCODE and choose display you'll see the authorization object and its content inside.
If you're not sure what concept you use try both and see what you're using.
Please assign points,
Diogo.
