• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RSODSO_TOOLS059 - No authorization to maintain the runtime parameters ?

  The SAP error message RSODSO_TOOLS059 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to maintain the runtime parameters for a DataStore Object (DSO) in SAP BW (Business Warehouse). This typically occurs when a user attempts to access or modify settings related to the DSO but lacks the required permissions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is insufficient authorization. In SAP BW, certain actions, such as maintaining runtime parameters, require specific authorizations that are not granted to the user. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user may not have been assigned the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
  Authorization Objects: The relevant authorization objects for maintaining DSOs are not included in the user's roles.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured to allow access to the required transactions or functions.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSODSO_TOOLS059 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorizations are missing.
  This transaction will show you the last authorization check and can help identify the specific authorization objects that are lacking.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user using transaction SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Ensure that the user has roles that include the necessary authorizations for maintaining DSO runtime parameters.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify existing roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  The relevant authorization objects for maintaining DSOs typically include:
  
  S_RS_COMP: Authorizations for reporting components.
  S_RS_DSO: Authorizations for DataStore Objects.
  S_BI_WB: Authorizations for the BW Workbench.
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After adjustments are made, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Attempt to perform the action again to verify that the error has been resolved.
