• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/DS_CORE061 - User &1 is assigned to carrier &2 and can use only this carrier ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/DS_CORE061 indicates that a user is assigned to a specific carrier and is restricted to using only that carrier for certain operations within the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system. This is a common scenario in environments where user roles and permissions are tightly controlled to ensure compliance with business rules or operational requirements.
  Cause:
  
  User Assignment: The user in question has been assigned to a specific carrier in the system. This assignment restricts the user to only use that carrier for their transactions.
  Configuration Settings: The system may be configured to enforce carrier-specific access for users, which is often done for security or operational reasons.
  Role Management: The user's role may not include permissions to access other carriers, leading to this restriction.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Assignment:
  
  Go to the user management section in SAP and verify the carrier assignment for the user. You can do this using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Ensure that the user is assigned to the correct carrier based on their operational needs.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user needs access to multiple carriers, you may need to modify their roles or permissions. This can be done by adding the necessary authorizations to the user’s profile.
  Use transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance) to adjust the roles and ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access other carriers.
  
  
  
  Consult with System Administrator:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, consult with your SAP system administrator or security team. They can help review and adjust the user’s assignments and roles as needed.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  If the restriction is due to specific configuration settings in the EWM system, you may need to review these settings. This could involve checking the configuration for user roles and carrier assignments in the EWM customizing settings.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Documentation: Refer to the SAP Help Portal for detailed documentation on user management and role assignments in SAP EWM.
