  Error Message
  WTADDI267: No authorization for data queries
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when a user tries to execute or access data queries in SAP (typically in the context of SAP Business Warehouse (BW) or SAP Analytics) but lacks the necessary authorizations. The system checks the user's authorizations against the required roles and permissions for query execution, and if these are missing or insufficient, the error is raised.
  Common causes include:
  
  Missing authorization objects related to query execution.
  User not assigned to the correct roles or profiles that permit query access.
  Authorization objects like S_RS_COMP (Authorization for BW components), S_RS_AUTH (Authorization for BW queries), or S_RS_ADMI (BW administration) are not properly assigned.
  The user might have access to the BW system but not to the specific InfoProvider or query.
  
  
  Solution
  To resolve the error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check which authorization check failed.
  Alternatively, use transaction ST01 (Authorization Trace) to trace the missing authorizations.
  
  
  
  Assign Required Roles:
  
  Ensure the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorization objects for query execution.
  Typical authorization objects to check and assign:
  
  S_RS_COMP – BW component authorization (e.g., InfoProvider access)
  S_RS_AUTH – BW query authorization
  S_RS_ADMI – BW administration (if needed)
  S_RS_ODSO – For ODS objects
  S_RS_RSO – For InfoCubes
  
  
  The roles should include the relevant InfoProvider or query names or authorization groups.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization Groups:
  
  Queries and InfoProviders can be assigned to authorization groups.
  Make sure the user has authorization for the groups assigned to the queries they want to run.
  
  
  
  Test Access:
  
  After adjusting roles and authorizations, test the query execution again.
  
  
  
  Consult Security Team:
  
  If you do not have authorization to change roles, coordinate with your SAP security or BASIS team.
