• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES109 - No authorization to change resource & ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES109 No authorization to change resource & typically occurs in the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module when a user attempts to modify a resource but lacks the necessary authorizations to do so. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to change the resource in the APO system. This could be due to missing roles or permissions assigned to the user profile.
  Resource Locking: The resource might be locked by another user or process, preventing changes.
  Configuration Errors: There may be issues with the configuration of the authorization objects related to resource management.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary permissions for resource management are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorization is missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorization objects, such as C_APO_RES (for resource management).
  Ensure that the role is properly assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to modify roles, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Resource Locking:
  
  Check if the resource is locked by another user. If so, you may need to wait until the lock is released or contact the user who has the lock.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to authorizations, test the changes by attempting to modify the resource again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
