  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES115 - No authorization to create definition & ?

    The SAP error message /SAPAPO/DMRES115 No authorization to create definition & typically occurs in the SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) module when a user attempts to create or modify a definition (such as a planning book, data view, or other configuration) but lacks the necessary authorizations.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to create or modify the specific definition in the APO system.
    2. Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions for the actions they are trying to perform.
    3. Missing Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects related to APO definitions may not be assigned to the user’s profile.

    Solution:

    1. 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.
    2. Review User Roles:

      • Go to transaction SU01 to check the user’s roles and profiles. Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for creating definitions in APO.
    3. Modify Roles:

      • If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorization objects. Common authorization objects for APO include:
        • S_APO_DSP (for display)
        • S_APO_MAINT (for maintenance)
        • S_APO_AUTH (for general authorization)
      • Consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure the correct roles are assigned.
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user’s roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
    5. Documentation:

      • Ensure that any changes made to roles and authorizations are documented for future reference and compliance.

    Related Information:

    • SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any specific guidance or updates related to this error message. Sometimes, SAP provides specific notes that address known issues or provide additional context.
    • Authorization Concept: Familiarize yourself with the SAP authorization concept, especially in the context of APO, to better understand how to manage user permissions effectively.
    • Training: If users frequently encounter authorization issues, consider providing training on how to request necessary authorizations or how to navigate the authorization process within your organization.

    If the problem persists after checking and updating authorizations, it may be necessary to consult with SAP support or your internal SAP basis team for further assistance.
