  Adding the relevant authorization objects related to tree management (e.g., S_TREEMAN).
  Ensuring that the user has the necessary activity authorizations (e.g., create, change, display).
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify user roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
