  The SAP error message /SCWM/DS_AC013 No authority to execute action &1 for &2 typically occurs in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when a user attempts to perform an action for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to execute a specific transaction, process, or function within the EWM module.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization object or role assigned to perform the action specified in the error message.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific action or object.
  Custom Authorization Checks: If there are custom authorization checks implemented in the system, they may be preventing the action from being executed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user encountering the error. This can be done using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  Review Authorization Objects: Identify the specific authorization object related to the action being attempted. You can use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization checks failed.
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the existing roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This typically involves:
  
  Adding the relevant authorization objects to the role.
  Assigning the role to the user.
  
  
  Consult with Security Team: If you are not authorized to make changes to roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to resolve the issue.
  Testing: After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: In SAP, authorization objects are used to control access to various functions. Common authorization objects related to EWM include S_WM_EWM for warehouse management and S_TCODE for transaction codes.

  SU01 - User Maintenance
  PFCG - Role Maintenance
  SU53 - Display Authorization Check
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for more details on authorization management in EWM and best practices for role assignment.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify the cause of the error and implement a solution to grant the necessary authorizations to the user.
