• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMUI/UIAPOMD118 - You have no authorization for &2 for table &1 ?

  The SAP error message /SCMUI/UIAPOMD118 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to access a specific table in the SAP system. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) or other modules where user permissions are critical for data access and manipulation.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  A user attempts to access a table (denoted as &1 in the error message) for which they do not have the required authorization object (denoted as &2).
  The authorization checks in SAP are not satisfied, meaning the user’s role does not include the necessary permissions to view or manipulate the specified table.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles and Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to check the user’s profile and roles.
  Review the assigned roles to ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for the specific table and action (e.g., display, change).
  
  
  
  Identify Required Authorization Objects:
  
  Determine which authorization objects are required for accessing the specified table. This can often be found in the documentation or by consulting with a security administrator.
  Common authorization objects related to table access include S_TABU_DIS (for table display) and S_TABU_CLI (for client-specific access).
  
  
  
  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.
  Use transaction code PFCG to manage roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s roles, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the access again to confirm that the error has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Consult Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles or if you are unsure about the required authorizations, consult your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Concept in SAP: Understanding how authorizations work in SAP is crucial. Authorizations are managed through roles and profiles, which define what actions a user can perform on specific objects.
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  PFCG: Role Maintenance
  SU53: Display Authorization Check (to see what authorizations were checked and failed)
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on authorization objects and their usage.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the authorization issue causing the error message /SCMUI/UIAPOMD118.
