  Solution:
  To resolve the CCMM196 error, you can take the following steps:

  Review Notification Type Settings:
  
  Check the configuration of the notification type in transaction code SPRO under the relevant section for Plant Maintenance or Customer Service. Ensure that the settings do not impose unnecessary restrictions.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Test the access to the notification type again.
