  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DT090 - You do not have authorization for database modification of table & ?

    The SAP error message DT090 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to modify a specific database table. This error typically arises when a user attempts to perform an action that requires write access to a database table, but their user profile lacks the appropriate permissions.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object for database modification.
    2. Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct role that includes the necessary permissions.
    3. Table-Specific Restrictions: Some tables may have specific restrictions that require additional authorizations.
    4. Transport Layer Restrictions: If the table is part of a transport layer, there may be restrictions on who can modify it.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to analyze the missing authorizations.
      • This will show you which authorization objects are missing.
    2. Review Roles and Profiles:

      • Use transaction code PFCG to review the roles assigned to the user.
      • Ensure that the role includes the necessary authorization objects for database modification (e.g., S_TABU_DIS for table access).
    3. Modify Authorizations:

      • If you have the necessary administrative rights, you can modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
      • If you do not have the necessary rights, contact your SAP security administrator to request the required authorizations.
    4. Testing:

      • After adjustments are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
      • Test the action again to confirm that the error has been resolved.

    Related Information:
