• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SEHS/BA_MISC2351 - No authorization for value assignment ?

  The SAP error message /SEHS/BA_MISC2351 No authorization for value assignment typically indicates that a user is attempting to perform an action related to value assignment in the SAP system but lacks the necessary authorizations to do so. This error is often encountered in the context of SAP's Environment, Health, and Safety (EHS) module, particularly when dealing with data related to hazardous materials, safety data sheets, or other compliance-related activities.
  Cause:
  
  Lack of Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization object or role assigned to perform the action related to value assignment.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific transaction or function.
  Missing Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects required for the action may not be included in the user's profile.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations for value assignment.

  S_EHS_900 (EHS: Authorization for Value Assignment)
  S_TCODE (Transaction Code Authorization)
  
  
  
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator can modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This can be done in transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  Testing: After making changes to the roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Test the action again to confirm that the error has been resolved.
