• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPSLL/CORE_CLSMD078 - No authorization to create control classes ?

  The SAP error message /SAPSLL/CORE_CLSMD078 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to create control classes in the SAP system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Global Trade Services (GTS) or SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) when a user attempts to perform an action that requires specific permissions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorizations assigned to the user role. Control classes are used in various processes, and creating or modifying them requires specific authorizations that may not be included in the user's current role.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 to check the user profile and the roles assigned to the user. Ensure that the user has the necessary roles that include permissions for creating control classes.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the existing roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This can be done using transaction code PFCG.
  The specific authorization object that may be relevant is S_SLL_CLSMD (for control class management). Ensure that the user has the necessary activity (like 01 for create) for this object.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can assist in reviewing and updating the user’s authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making the necessary changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt the action that previously resulted in the error.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to authorization management in GTS or SCM for more detailed guidance.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU53: Display authorization check
