• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /CCIS/TAX132 - You are not authorized for creation of a tax hierarchy ?

  The SAP error message /CCIS/TAX132: You are not authorized for creation of a tax hierarchy indicates that the user attempting to create a tax hierarchy does not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action. This is a common issue in SAP systems where user roles and authorizations are strictly managed.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects that allow them to create or modify tax hierarchies.
  Role Configuration: The user's assigned roles may not include the necessary permissions for tax hierarchy management.
  System Configuration: There may be specific configurations in the SAP system that restrict certain actions based on user roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Review the roles assigned to the user and check if they include the necessary authorizations for tax hierarchy creation.
  
  
  
  Authorization Objects:
  
  The relevant authorization objects for tax hierarchy management typically include F_TAX_HIER or similar. Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for these objects.
  You can check the authorization objects by using transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify what is missing.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user does not have the required authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the necessary permissions.
  This can be done using transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance). Ensure that the role includes the necessary authorization objects for tax hierarchy management.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help you identify and assign the correct roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Attempt to create the tax hierarchy again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
