• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DS137 - You only have the submit authorization & ?

  The SAP error message DS137, which states "You only have the submit authorization," typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a task or access a function for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This error is often related to the submission of jobs or reports in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorizations to execute the specific transaction or report. This can happen if the user role is not configured correctly or if the user has been assigned a role that only allows submission but not execution.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the actions they are trying to perform.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be set up to allow the execution of certain transactions or reports.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Review the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include execution permissions for the required transactions.
  Authorization Check: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check for missing authorizations. This transaction provides a detailed report of the authorization check that failed.
  Adjust Role Permissions: If the user lacks the necessary permissions, work with your SAP security team to adjust the roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Testing: After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, test the transaction again to see if the issue is resolved.
