  The SAP error message 6A855 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to perform a specific action related to a contract in a particular company code (CoCd) and contract type. This error typically arises in the context of contract management or procurement processes within SAP.
  Cause:
  The error message is triggered when:
  
  The user attempts to access or modify a contract in a company code for which they do not have the required authorizations.
  The contract type being accessed is not included in the user's authorization profile.
  The specific function (e.g., create, change, display) that the user is trying to perform is not permitted due to missing authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization object is missing.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary authorizations for the company code, contract type, and function are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations.
  Ensure that the authorization objects related to contract management (e.g., F_BKPF_BWA, F_BKPF_BWA, F_LFA1_APP, etc.) are included in the role.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. Provide them with the details of the error message and the context in which it occurred.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the authorization roles, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the transaction again to confirm that the error has been resolved.
