Automate Your SAP Transaction Code Authorization Approval

This document describes how to automate SAP transaction code authorization approvals using simple workflow. It provides a step-by-step process to create a workflow template that is triggered when a user encounters an authorization error for a transaction code. When the error occurs, the user can initiate the workflow for approval. This allows different roles/users to approve access to different transaction codes, providing a automated approval process to replace manually requesting access from the IT department.

Introduction

In every Project you have worked or will work you will get this Error Message.

“You are not Authorized to use this Transaction Code”

General procedure after that if you have worked with SAP before, you will take a SU53 Transaction
Code dump and send it to SAP Security Team or you create a Ticket/Request in your Requesting
System.

If you do not know you bug the IT Department and they will tell you to do the above. For a long time
I thought this thing need to stop. The solution below can help you to solve this issue by the most
Sophisticated Technology SAP had and still has which is SAP Workflow. I am bragging about it as I
am a SAP Workflow Consultant trying to learn little by little:)
