• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ILM_STOR706 - No authorization to execute test reports ?

  The SAP error message ILM_STOR706 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to execute test reports related to Information Lifecycle Management (ILM). This error typically arises when a user attempts to run a report or transaction that requires specific authorizations that they do not possess.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorizations in the user's role or profile. In the context of ILM, certain reports and transactions require specific authorizations to ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive data or perform critical operations.
  Solution:
  To resolve the ILM_STOR706 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check that failed and provide insights into which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  
  Review Roles and Profiles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  Ensure that the user has the necessary roles that include the required authorizations for executing ILM test reports.
  
  
  
  Add Missing Authorizations:
  
  If you identify missing authorizations, you may need to modify existing roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorization objects.
  Common authorization objects related to ILM include:
  
  S_ILM_AUTH: Authorization for ILM functions.
  S_USER_AUTH: User authorization checks.
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can assist in granting the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After adjustments are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to execute the report again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for ILM to understand the specific authorizations required for various ILM functionalities.
  Audit Logs: Check audit logs for any unauthorized access attempts, which can provide insights into security issues.
