  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check which authorization objects are missing. This transaction will show you the last authorization check that failed.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
