• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WSAM_SHMAE035 - You have no authorization for plant & ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WSAM_SHMAE035 – "You have no authorization for plant &"
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs because the user does not have the necessary authorization to access or perform actions related to the specified plant in SAP. The system checks user authorizations against the plant (WERKS) and if the user lacks the required permissions, this message is triggered.
  
  Explanation:
  
  In SAP, many transactions and reports are restricted based on organizational units such as plants.
  Authorizations are controlled via roles and profiles assigned to users.
  The plant authorization is typically controlled by the authorization object M_PLANT (Plant) or similar objects depending on the module.
  If the user tries to access data or perform an operation for a plant they are not authorized for, the system blocks the action and shows this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles and Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU01 to check the user’s assigned roles.
  Use transaction PFCG to review the roles and their authorization objects.
  Look specifically for authorization objects related to plants, such as:
  
  M_PLANT (Plant)
  IWERK (Plant in some modules)
  Other module-specific plant authorization objects.
  
  
  
  
  
  Assign Proper Authorization:
  
  If the user needs access to the plant, update their roles to include the required plant(s).
  In PFCG, add or adjust the plant values in the authorization data for the relevant authorization objects.
  Generate and assign the updated role to the user.
  
  
  
  Verify the Plant Code:
  
  Confirm that the plant code entered or used in the transaction is correct and valid.
  Sometimes a typo or incorrect plant code can cause this error.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After updating authorizations, test the transaction again to ensure the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  This error is common in modules like MM (Materials Management), PP (Production Planning), PM (Plant Maintenance), and SD (Sales and Distribution) where plant-level authorization is critical.
  If you are unsure which authorization object controls plant access in your scenario, check the authorization trace using ST01 or SU53 after the error occurs.
  Always follow your organization's security policies when granting authorizations.
