• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TK627 - No authorization to release requests of other users ?

  The SAP error message TK627, which states "No authorization to release requests of other users," typically occurs when a user attempts to release a transport request that was created by another user without having the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorizations in the user's role. In SAP, transport requests are often restricted to ensure that only authorized personnel can release changes to the system. The authorization checks are performed based on the user's roles and profiles.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Verify the user's roles and authorizations in the SAP system. You can do this by using transaction code SU01 to view the user profile.
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to release transport requests. The relevant authorization object is S_TRANSPRT, which controls access to transport requests.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user does not have the required authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or add a new role that includes the necessary authorizations.
  You can use transaction code PFCG to manage roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Transport Organizer:
  
  If the user is supposed to have access to release transport requests, ensure that they are using the correct transport organizer (transaction code SE09 or SE10) and that the transport request is in a status that allows for release.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help assess the situation and make the necessary changes.
  
  
  
  Check Transport Request Ownership:
  
  Ensure that the transport request is indeed owned by another user and that the user attempting to release it has the appropriate permissions to do so.
