• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCDT_MAP036 - No change authorization ?

  The SAP error message SCDT_MAP036: No change authorization typically occurs when a user attempts to make changes to a data object or configuration in the SAP system but lacks the necessary authorization to do so. This error is often encountered in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) or when working with data mapping and transformation processes.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required roles or authorizations assigned to perform the change operation.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to the specific transaction or data object may not be properly configured.
  Role Assignment Issues: The user may not be assigned to the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations for the action they are trying to perform.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Verify the user's roles and authorizations using transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify which authorization is missing.
  Use transaction code PFCG to review the roles assigned to the user and ensure that the necessary authorizations are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the existing roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations for the specific action.
  Ensure that the role includes the relevant authorization objects, such as S_DATA, S_TCODE, or any other specific objects related to the data being modified.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security or basis team. They can assist in reviewing and updating the user's authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles or 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.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
