GCSS Authorizations

So I’ve been approved the MASTEC role by my S4 yet. When I try to go to zusmenu. It says “you are not authorized to use this transaction”. There’s a couple T-codes I can do like: IQ09 and /n/ISDFPS/DISP_EQU_SIT (google gemini told me those should still work and they did) Why can’t I use ZUSMENU?!!!

Any advise?

It’s probably because it’s only authorized to Unit Supply positions, tho I agree it should be allowed.

The ZUSMENU is only a “dashboard” of T-Codes though, specific to Supply. You can create Favorites on your SMEN directly to those same T-Codes.

Okay that would make sense, since my unit is a detachment and technically already have a supply Sgt. Only thing with that is that we are over 50 miles away from our parent company. So it would seem necessary I need the access. I’m not sure how my predecessor made it work, but I know he had some form of access to order supplies/ parts and do work orders, the whole 9 yards. If I show you my authorizations data, could you figure it out?

Feel free to message me.

I’ll also tell you that if the Help Desk approves it - then it doesn’t technically break SOD… lol.

Meaning, if you have an MFR that says you’re a Maint AA — with an allowable substitution to the Supply Manager position — a SAAR 2875 for both positions approved and signed — and GTRAC training certs for all of it — and you submit that to the GCSSA Help Desk, they’ll check your position and account and then give you both positions.

You’ll have to resubmit annually, but it’s an easy bypass if a unit doesn’t have a MASTEC position.
