• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPPO/ORDER070 - You do not have the authorization to close the order ?

  The SAP error message /SAPPO/ORDER070 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to close a particular order. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that only users with the appropriate permissions can perform certain actions, such as closing orders.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Roles: The user may not have the required authorization roles assigned to their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or insufficient permissions within the roles assigned.
  Authorization Objects: The specific authorization object related to closing orders may not be included in the user's roles. This could involve objects like S_TCODE, S_AUTHORITY, or specific objects related to the order type.
  Order Status: The order may be in a status that does not allow it to be closed, which could also trigger authorization checks.
  User Profile Changes: Changes in user roles or profiles may have occurred, leading to the loss of necessary permissions.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after receiving the error 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.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user's roles to include the necessary authorizations.
  Ensure that the relevant authorization objects are included in the roles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not an administrator, contact your SAP security team or the person responsible for user management in your organization. Provide them with the error message and any details from the SU53 analysis.
  
  
  
  Check Order Status:
  
  Verify the status of the order you are trying to close. If the order is not in a state that allows it to be closed, you may need to take additional steps to change its status before closing it.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After changes are made to the user’s roles or authorizations, test the action again to ensure that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Transaction Codes:

  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
