  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/SB066 indicates that a user is not authorized to create scenario data using a specific scenario template. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Transportation Management (TM) when a user attempts to create or modify scenario data but lacks the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to create or modify scenario data. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
  Scenario Template Restrictions: The scenario template being used may have specific restrictions or settings that limit who can create scenarios based on it.
  User Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the actions they are trying to perform.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed.
  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 assign additional roles that include the required authorization objects for creating scenario data.
  Consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure the user has the appropriate roles.
  
  
  
  Review Scenario Template Settings:
  
  Check the configuration of the scenario template being used. Ensure that it is set up correctly and that there are no restrictions preventing the user from using it.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s roles or the scenario template, have the user attempt to create the scenario again to verify that the issue is resolved.
