  The SAP error message CM_EHFND_PRODMST_CMN004 indicates that there is no authorization group assigned to a particular object or transaction, which is preventing the user from performing the desired action. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users have the necessary permissions to access certain functionalities.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Group: The object or transaction you are trying to access does not have an authorization group assigned to it.
  User Role Configuration: The user role assigned to you may not include the necessary authorizations to access the object or transaction.
  System Configuration: The system may not be configured correctly to assign authorization groups to the relevant objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Authorization Group Assignment:
  
  Go to the relevant transaction or object in SAP.
  Check if an authorization group is assigned. If not, you may need to assign one.
  
  
  
  Contact System Administrator:
  
  Since the error message suggests contacting the system administrator, it is advisable to reach out to them. They can check the configuration and assign the necessary authorization group to the object or transaction.
  
  
  
  Review User Roles:
  
  The system administrator should review the user roles assigned to you. They can ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations to access the required functionalities.
  
  
  
  Transaction SU01:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can check your user profile using transaction SU01 to see the roles assigned to you and verify if they include the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Authorization Object:
  
  The administrator can also check the relevant authorization objects (e.g., S_USER_AUTH, S_TCODE, etc.) to ensure that the user has the necessary permissions.
  
  
  
  Testing:

  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SU01 (User Maintenance), PFCG (Role Maintenance), and SU53 (Authorization Check) to troubleshoot authorization issues.
  
  If the problem persists after following these steps, further investigation may be required, potentially involving SAP support or consulting documentation specific to your SAP version and configuration.
