• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DMEE_AUTH001 - You do not have authorization to change tree &1. ?

  The SAP error message DMEE_AUTH001 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to change a specific DMEE (Data Medium Exchange Engine) tree. This error typically arises when a user attempts to modify a DMEE tree but lacks the required permissions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is insufficient authorization for the user role assigned to the individual trying to make changes to the DMEE tree. The authorization checks are based on the user's roles and profiles, which may not include the necessary permissions for DMEE operations.
  Solution:
  To resolve the DMEE_AUTH001 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show which specific authorization object is missing.
  Alternatively, you can check the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations for DMEE.
  The relevant authorization objects for DMEE include:
  
  S_TCODE (Transaction Code)
  S_DME (Data Medium Exchange)
  
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate authorizations for the DMEE tree they are trying to modify.
  
  
  
  Assign the Correct Role:
  
  If a suitable role already exists, assign it to the user. If not, create a new role with the necessary authorizations and assign it to the user.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure the new permissions take effect.
  Attempt to modify the DMEE tree again to verify that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to change user roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
