• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/AC120 - Internet users are not authorized to delete this business document ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/AC120 indicates that internet users do not have the necessary authorization to delete a specific business document in the SAP Transportation Management System (TMS). This error typically arises when a user attempts to perform an action that their current role or authorization profile does not permit.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to delete the business document does not have the required authorization object or role assigned to their user profile.
  User Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include permissions for deleting business documents in the TMS module.
  Document Status: The document may be in a status that does not allow deletion, regardless of user permissions.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Go to transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify which authorization object is missing.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations for deleting business documents in TMS.
  Ensure that the role includes the relevant authorization objects, such as S_TMS_DOC or other related objects that govern document deletion.
  
  
  
  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 Document Status:
  
  Verify the status of the business document. If it is in a status that does not allow deletion (e.g., completed, archived), you may need to change its status or follow a different process to handle it.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new permissions take effect. Then, attempt the deletion again.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects in SAP TMS that control access to various functions, including document deletion.
  SAP Notes: Check for any SAP Notes related to this error message for additional guidance or known issues.
