• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SLEI_DEF_MSG090 - You are not authorized to transport design time linkage ?

  The SAP error message SLEI_DEF_MSG090 indicates that a user is not authorized to transport design-time linkages in the SAP system. This typically occurs when a user attempts to perform a transport operation (like moving objects between different environments) without having the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorizations in their role/profile to perform transport operations related to design-time linkages.
  Transport Configuration Issues: There may be issues with the transport configuration or the transport layer settings that restrict certain operations.
  Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct roles that include the necessary permissions for transport activities.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insights into which specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure they have the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Assign Required Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, you may need to assign them roles that include the required authorizations for transport activities. Common roles that might be needed include:
  
  SAP_ALL (for full access, but use with caution)
  Specific roles related to transport management (e.g., SAP_TD_ADMIN).
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Basis Team:
  
  If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP Basis team or security administrator. They can help identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Review Transport Configuration:
  
  Ensure that the transport routes and layers are correctly configured in transaction STMS. Any misconfiguration can lead to authorization issues.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or configurations, test the transport operation again to ensure that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  
  Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects related to transport activities include:
  
  S_TRANSPRT: This object controls transport-related authorizations.
  S_DEVELOP: This object is related to development authorizations.
  
  
  
  Transport Management System (TMS): Familiarize yourself with TMS and its configuration, as it plays a crucial role in managing transports in SAP.
  
  
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for detailed information on authorization management and transport management.
  
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the authorization issue causing the SLEI_DEF_MSG090 error.
