• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/AC015 - Save rejected because of missing authorization to save node &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/AC015 Save rejected because of missing authorization to save node &1 typically occurs in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when a user attempts to save a node (such as a transportation lane, shipment, or other configuration) but lacks the necessary authorizations to perform that action.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the user does not have the required authorization object to save the specified node in the SAP system. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Roles: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorizations for the specific action they are trying to perform.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization object related to the specific node type may not be properly assigned to the user.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be updated or may not include the necessary permissions.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to view the user’s roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the action they are trying to perform.
  If the user is missing roles, you may need to assign the correct roles that include the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the roles are correct but the user still faces issues, you may need to modify the authorization objects associated with those roles to include the necessary permissions for the specific node type.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify and rectify the authorization issues.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, attempt to save the node again.
