• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CTS_WBO_API102 - No authorization to release change request &1 ?

  The SAP error message CTS_WBO_API102 No authorization to release change request &1 typically indicates that the user attempting to release a change request does not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action. This error is related to the Change and Transport System (CTS) in SAP, which manages the transport of changes across different environments.
  Cause:
  
  Lack of Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization objects to release the change request. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Incorrect User Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the appropriate roles that include the necessary permissions for change request management.
  Transport Layer Restrictions: There may be restrictions on the transport layer that prevent the user from releasing changes.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorization objects for releasing change requests. Common authorization objects related to change requests include:
  
  S_CTS_ADMI (Change and Transport System Administration)
  S_CTS_AUTH (Authorization for Change and Transport System)
  
  
  If the user needs to release change requests, they typically require the S_CTS_ADMI authorization with the appropriate activity (e.g., 01 for create, 02 for change, 03 for display).
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as necessary.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Layer Settings:
  
  Ensure that the transport layer settings do not impose restrictions that would prevent the user from releasing the change request.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, have the user attempt to release the change request again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
