• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SPE/ASN_CANC019 - No authorization for closing of deliveries ?

  The SAP error message /SPE/ASN_CANC019 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to close deliveries in the system. This error typically arises in the context of logistics and supply chain management, particularly when dealing with Advanced Shipping Notifications (ASN) or delivery processing.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to close the delivery does not have the required authorization roles or permissions assigned in their user profile.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary transaction codes or object authorizations related to delivery processing.
  Custom Authorization Objects: If the organization has implemented custom authorization objects, the user may lack the specific authorizations defined in those objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or SAP Basis consultant should modify the user’s roles to include the required authorizations for closing deliveries.
  Ensure that the user has access to the relevant transaction codes (e.g., VL02N for delivery change) and authorization objects related to delivery processing.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After updating the user’s roles, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Attempt to close the delivery again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Documentation and Training:
  
  Ensure that users are aware of the necessary authorizations required for their roles and provide training if needed.
  Document the authorization requirements for closing deliveries to prevent similar issues in the future.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to delivery processing include V_LIKP_VST (Delivery Header) and V_LIKP_VST (Delivery Item).
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  VL02N - Change Outbound Delivery
  VL03N - Display Outbound Delivery
  VL01N - Create Outbound Delivery
  
  
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address specific issues or provide additional guidance on authorization management.
  
  If the problem persists after checking and updating authorizations, it may be necessary to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP documentation for further troubleshooting.
