• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/FCS_BOM035 - No authorization to update CVCs ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/FCS_BOM035 No authorization to update CVCs typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when a user attempts to update characteristic value combinations (CVCs) but lacks the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the user does not have the required authorization to perform updates on CVCs in the APO system. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions to update CVCs.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: Specific authorization objects related to CVC updates may not be assigned to the user.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured to allow updates in the APO environment.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, you may need to assign roles that include the required authorizations for updating CVCs. This typically involves roles related to APO and planning functions.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the roles are correct but specific authorization objects are missing, you may need to modify the roles to include the necessary authorizations. Common authorization objects related to CVC updates include:
  
  S_APO_CVC (for CVC maintenance)
  S_APO_BOM (for BOM-related authorizations)
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure that the user is granted the appropriate access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt the operation again to see if the error persists.
