• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMTMS/TEND051 - No authorization to display requested tendering profiles ?

  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/TEND051 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display the requested tendering profiles in the SAP Transportation Management System (TMS). This error typically arises when a user attempts to access certain functionalities or data for which they lack the appropriate permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorizations to view tendering profiles.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be properly configured to include access to the required transaction codes or objects.
  Profile Restrictions: The tendering profiles themselves may have restrictions that prevent certain users from viewing them.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for TMS.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization objects are missing.
  Common authorization objects related to TMS include S_TMS_TEND (for tendering profiles) and others that may be relevant based on your configuration.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the necessary authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  This can be done using 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, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the functionality again to confirm that the error is resolved.
