  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include the necessary authorizations.
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization object is missing. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify the specific object that is causing the issue.
  Modify Roles: If the necessary authorization is missing, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should modify the user’s roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Use Transaction SUIM: This transaction can be used to analyze user authorizations and roles. You can check which roles are assigned to the user and what authorizations those roles contain.
  Consult with Security Team: If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the necessary authorizations.
