  The SAP error message /SCWM/RSRC130 No authorization to delete a location &1, auth. group &2 typically indicates that the user attempting to delete a location in the SAP Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) system does not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action. Here’s a breakdown of the cause, potential solutions, and related information:
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization for the specific location or authorization group mentioned in the error message.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions to delete locations in the EWM system.
  Location Status: The location may be in a status that does not allow deletion, although this is less common for this specific error.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations for deleting locations.
  Ensure that the role includes the necessary authorization objects related to warehouse management, such as W_T001W (Warehouse Management: Authorization for Warehouse) and any other relevant objects.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Check Location Status:
  
  Verify if the location is in a status that allows deletion. If it is locked or in use, you may need to resolve those issues before attempting to delete it.
  
  
  
  Documentation and Training:
  
  Ensure that users are trained on the proper procedures for managing locations in EWM and understand the implications of deleting locations.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects for EWM, such as W_T001W, which controls access to warehouse-related activities.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance on authorization problems in EWM.
  Transaction Codes: Common transaction codes related to user management and authorizations include:
  
  SU01 - User Maintenance
  PFCG - Role Maintenance
  SU53 - Display Authorization Check
  
  
  EWM Documentation: Review SAP EWM documentation for best practices on managing locations and understanding authorization requirements.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the authorization issue and successfully delete the location in question.
