  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SAPLWOSK018 - You do not have authorization for any of the possible sales doc types ?

    The SAP error message SAPLWOSK018 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorizations to access any of the sales document types in the system. This can occur in various scenarios, such as when trying to create, change, or display sales documents.

    Cause:

    1. Missing Authorizations: The user role assigned to the user does not include the necessary authorizations for the sales document types they are trying to access.
    2. Incorrect Role Assignment: The user may not have been assigned the correct role that includes the required authorizations for the sales document types.
    3. Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to sales documents (e.g., V_VBAK_VKO, V_VBAK_AAT) may not be properly configured or may have restrictions that prevent access.
    4. Sales Document Type Configuration: The sales document types may not be properly configured in the system, or the user may not be assigned to the relevant sales organization or distribution channel.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the necessary roles that include authorizations for the required sales document types.
    2. Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization objects are missing. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations need to be granted.
    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 authorizations for the sales document types.
    4. 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 resolve the issue.
    5. Check Sales Document Type Configuration: Ensure that the sales document types are correctly configured in the system and that the user is assigned to the appropriate sales organization and distribution channel.

    Related Information:

    • Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects for sales documents, such as:
      • V_VBAK_VKO: Sales Document: Authorization for Sales Organization
      • V_VBAK_AAT: Sales Document: Authorization for Document Type
    • Transaction Codes:
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance
