  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TXX060 - No authorization to maintain the view definition ?

    The SAP error message TXX060, which states "No authorization to maintain the view definition," typically occurs when a user attempts to create, modify, or delete a view in the SAP system without having the necessary authorizations. This error is related to the authorization objects that control access to various functions within SAP.

    Cause:

    The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorizations assigned to the user. Specifically, the user may not have the necessary permissions for the following:

    1. Authorization Object S_TABU_CLI: This object controls access to table maintenance and view definitions.
    2. Authorization Object S_TABU_DIS: This object controls display access to tables and views.
    3. Authorization Object S_TCODE: This object controls access to transaction codes, which may include the transaction used to maintain views.

    Solution:

    To resolve the TXX060 error, you can take the following steps:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
      • Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user's profile and check the assigned roles.
    2. Assign Necessary Roles:

      • If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to assign them to a role that includes the required authorizations for maintaining view definitions.
      • Work with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure that the user is granted the appropriate roles.
    3. Modify Existing Roles:

      • If the user already has roles assigned but still encounters the error, you may need to modify those roles to include the necessary authorization objects (S_TABU_CLI, S_TABU_DIS, etc.).
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to the user's authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
      • Test the action that previously caused the error to confirm that it has been resolved.

    Related Information:

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SU53: Display Authorization Check
      • SU01: User Maintenance
      • PFCG: Role Maintenance (to manage roles and authorizations)
    • Authorization Objects:

      • S_TABU_CLI: Authorization for table maintenance and view definitions.
      • S_TABU_DIS: Authorization for display access to tables and views.
      • S_TCODE: Authorization for transaction codes.
    • Best Practices:

      • Regularly review user roles and authorizations to ensure they align with business needs and security policies.
      • Implement a process for managing and auditing authorizations to prevent unauthorized access.

    If you continue to experience issues after checking and updating authorizations, consider consulting SAP documentation or reaching out to SAP support for further assistance.
