  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TDL201 You are not authorized to edit trade lane &1 typically indicates that the user attempting to edit a trade lane in the SAP Transportation Management System (TM) does not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization object to edit trade lanes. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in their user profile.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific transaction or object.
  Trade Lane Status: The trade lane might be in a status that restricts editing, although this is less common for this specific error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Go to transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify which specific authorization is missing.
  Review the authorization objects related to the Transportation Management System, particularly those associated with trade lanes.

  S_TCODE (Transaction Code)
  S_TMS_TL (Authorization for Trade Lane)
  S_TMS (General TM Authorizations)
  
  
  
  
  
  Modify Role Configuration:
  
  If the user needs additional permissions, the security team can modify the existing roles or create new ones that include the necessary authorizations for trade lane editing.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or the SAP Help Portal for detailed information on authorization objects related to Transportation Management.
  
  
  
  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 edit the trade lane again.
