• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/AC013 - No authority to execute action &1 for &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/AC013 No authority to execute action &1 for &2 typically indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform a specific action in the SAP Transportation Management System (TMS). The placeholders &1 and &2 in the message represent the action that the user is trying to execute and the object (such as a transport request, shipment, etc.) on which the action is being attempted.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorization objects or roles that grant permission to execute the specified action.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the action in question.
  Transport Management Configuration: There may be specific configurations in TMS that restrict certain actions based on user roles.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations for the action they are trying to perform.
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  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 authorizations. This can be done in transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  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.
  
  
  Testing: After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Test the action again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to TMS actions include S_TMS_* objects, which control access to various TMS functionalities.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or the SAP Help Portal for detailed information on authorization management in SAP TMS.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SU01 for user maintenance, PFCG for role maintenance, and SU53 for authorization checks.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the authorization issue causing the error message /SCMTMS/AC013.
