  The SAP error message /SAPSLL/CON_LMGM068 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to edit a specific license in the SAP system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) or when dealing with license management in SAP.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to edit the license does not have the required authorization objects assigned to their user profile. This could be due to missing roles or permissions related to license management.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for editing licenses, which can be a result of incorrect role assignment or configuration.
  License Status: The license may be in a status that does not allow editing, such as being locked or in a read-only state.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary permissions for license editing are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorization objects. Common authorization objects related to license management include:
  
  S_SLL_LIC (for license management)
  S_TCODE (for transaction codes)
  
  
  Ensure that the role includes the necessary activities (like create, change, display) for the license management transactions.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Check License Status:
  
  Verify the status of the license you are trying to edit. If it is locked or in a state that does not allow editing, you may need to unlock it or change its status before proceeding.
