  The SAP error message /SCMTMS/UI_MESSAGES282 indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to create profile and layout sets in the SAP Transportation Management System (TMS). This is a common issue related to user permissions and roles within the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorization in the user's role. Specifically, the user may not have the necessary permissions assigned to create or modify profile and layout sets in the TMS module.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles and Authorizations:

  Adding the necessary authorization objects related to TMS, such as S_TMS_AUTH or other relevant objects that allow for the creation of profile and layout sets.
  
  
  
  
  
  Authorization Object:
  
  Ensure that the authorization object S_TMS_AUTH is included in the user's role with the appropriate activity (e.g., 01 for create, 02 for change).
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s roles and authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new permissions take effect.
  Test the functionality again to see if the error persists.
