• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCWM/QUI_INSPDOC023 - You do not have authorization to display sample &1 in warehouse number &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCWM/QUI_INSPDOC023 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display a specific sample in a given warehouse number. This error typically arises in the context of the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module, particularly when dealing with quality inspection documents.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorization in the user's role or profile. The system checks the user's permissions against the required authorizations for accessing the specified sample and warehouse number. If the user does not have the necessary authorization objects assigned, the error will be triggered.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check that failed and provide insight into 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 accessing quality inspection documents in the specified warehouse.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the existing roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorization objects. Common authorization objects related to warehouse management and quality inspection include:
  
  Q_INSP_DOC (Quality Inspection Document)
  W_MSEG_WA (Warehouse Management Document)
  
  
  Ensure that the roles include the necessary activity authorizations (e.g., display, create, change).
  
  
  
  Assign Roles to User:
  
  After modifying or creating the role, assign it to the user who is encountering the error.
  
  
  
  Test the Changes:
  
  Have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to access the sample again to verify that the issue is resolved.
