  The SAP error message 6D762 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display a contract in the system. The message specifically mentions that the user lacks authorization for a particular authorization type, denoted by &1.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorization object that allows them to display contracts.
  Authorization Type: The specific authorization type required to view the contract is not granted to the user.
  User Role Configuration: The user may not be assigned to the correct role that includes the necessary permissions for contract display.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance).
  Enter the user ID and check the roles assigned to the user.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:

  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Use transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance) to adjust roles and add the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  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 error message and details from the SU53 transaction.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test to see if the user can now display the contract.
