  The SAP error message CE459 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to access a specific plant in the system. This is a common issue in SAP environments where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only access data and perform actions relevant to their roles.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to one or more of the following reasons:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user lacks the necessary authorization for the specific plant. This is typically controlled by authorization objects such as C_plant or C_SALD_CUS (depending on the transaction).
  User Role Configuration: The user's role may not include the required authorizations for the plant in question.
  Plant Not Assigned: The plant may not be assigned to the user’s profile or role in the authorization settings.
  Profile Changes: Recent changes to user roles or profiles may have inadvertently removed access to the plant.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CE459 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization is missing.

  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction PFCG. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations for the specific plant.

  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the authorization objects associated with the user’s role to include access to the required plant.
  Ensure that the authorization object for the plant (e.g., C_plant) includes the plant code in question.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator. Provide them with the details of the error and the plant code that is causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
