• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WZ613 - You do not have authorization to create standard text & ?

  SAP Error Message:
  
  WZ613 - You do not have authorization to create standard text &
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a user attempts to create or modify a standard text in SAP but lacks the necessary authorization. Standard texts are managed in the SAPscript or Smart Forms environment, and their creation or modification requires specific authorizations.
  
  Explanation:
  
  Standard texts are stored in text objects and are used across various SAP applications.
  To create or change these texts, the user must have the appropriate authorization objects assigned.
  The error indicates that the user’s current role or profile does not include the required authorization to perform this action.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Verify the user’s roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  Identify if the user has the authorization object S_TEXT with the activity to create/change standard texts.
  
  
  
  Authorization Object:
  
  The key authorization object related to standard texts is S_TEXT.
  Relevant fields in S_TEXT:
  
  TEXT_ID: The text ID (e.g., ST for standard texts).
  ACTVT: Activity (e.g., 01 = Create, 02 = Change, 03 = Display).
  TEXT_OBJECT: The text object (e.g., ST for standard texts).
  
  
  
  
  
  Grant Required Authorization:
  
  Assign or update the user’s role to include S_TEXT with the necessary activities (usually 01 and 02 for create/change).
  Make sure the role includes the correct TEXT_OBJECT and TEXT_ID values relevant to the texts the user needs to manage.
  
  
  
  Transport and Testing:
  
  After updating roles, transport the changes if necessary.
  Test the user’s ability to create or change standard texts again.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information:
  
  Transaction Codes:
  
  SO10: Maintain standard texts.
  SE61: SAPscript text maintenance.
  
  
  Users without proper authorization will be blocked from creating or editing texts in these transactions.
  Sometimes, the error can also occur if the user tries to create texts in a client or environment where they do not have sufficient rights.
  If the user is supposed to only display texts, ensure they have the display activity (03) but not create/change.
