  The SAP error message /SCWM/LM_TATT016 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display Time and Attendance data in a specific warehouse. This error typically arises in the context of SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when a user attempts to access Time and Attendance (T&A) data without the appropriate permissions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of authorization in the user's role or profile. The system checks the user's authorizations against the required permissions to access Time and Attendance data, and if the user does not have the necessary rights, the error is triggered.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles and Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to display the user profile.

  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 permissions. This can be done using transaction code PFCG.
  Ensure that the new or modified role is properly assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
