What this finding means

Fiori 403 Root-Cause Doctor reports this finding with the default severity “Critical”.

About the engine: PFCG role, auth objects (S_START, S_SERVICE) & ICF catalog auditor

How to fix it

In the BTP cockpit fix the destination's authentication (type, technical user / certificate, principal propagation trust with the Cloud Connector and CERTRULE mapping) until 'Check Connection' succeeds, then retry the app.

How ERP Preflight detects it

The analysis is deterministic: the same exported files and the same knowledge snapshot always produce the same findings. No SAP system connection is required — you upload exports.

Evidence
Each finding points to the artifact path, line and column, the code snippet and the SHA-256 of the uploaded file. Findings without such a pointer are demoted to confidence UNKNOWN.
Confidence
The verdict rests on your artifacts only. Each finding carries a confidence class (VERIFIED, RULE_DERIVED, INFERRED or UNKNOWN) that shows how strong the evidence is.
