• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/PS_BASICS009 - You have no authorization to display pack. specification &1 of group &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/PS_BASICS009 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display a packing specification in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module. The message typically includes placeholders for the specific packing specification (&1) and the group (&2) that the user is trying to access.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by insufficient authorization in the user's role or profile. This can happen if:
  
  The user does not have the required authorization object for accessing packing specifications.
  The authorization roles assigned to the user do not include the necessary permissions for the specific packing specification or group.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code PFCG to review the roles assigned to the user. Check if the roles include the necessary authorizations for the packing specification.
  
  
  
  Modify or Create Authorization Roles:
  
  If the required authorization is missing, you may need to modify an existing role or create a new role that includes the necessary authorization objects. The relevant authorization objects for packing specifications in EWM may include:
  
  S_EWM_PCKSPC (for packing specifications)
  Other related authorization objects depending on your specific configuration.
  
  
  
  
  
  Assign the Correct Role:
  
  Once the role has been updated or created, assign it to the user. This can be done in transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Test the Changes:
  
  After making the changes, have the user log out and log back in to test if they can now access the packing specification.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects in SAP EWM that pertain to packing specifications and other related functionalities.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on authorization management in EWM.
  Security Audit: If authorization issues are frequent, consider conducting a security audit to ensure that users have the appropriate access levels based on their roles and responsibilities.
  
  If the issue persists after following these steps, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP security team or a functional consultant for further investigation.
