Alf,

you need to have this auth objext S_TCODE with values ( like SM51,SM21 ,ST* ) to access that transaction. If none of the assigned role/prfile contains this auth object , you cant execute any transaction.When you execute a transaction , system will check this auth object to see whether you have access to that transaction else you will get something like you do not have authorization for transaction xxxx . Check SUIM , enter your id and see what values are given to S_TCODE for roles assigned to you. Hepls to understand better.

Thanks

Why you want to create without S_TCODE auth object ?

S_TCODE is an authorization object which is required ( not sufficient all the time ) to start an SAP transaction from command box or menu .
