This error typically arises in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) or similar modules where supply sort rules are managed.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorization in the user's role or profile.

  This can be done using transaction code PFCG (Profile Generator).
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can assist in granting the appropriate access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
