  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The most common cause of this error is that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to access the FTP data. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
  Configuration Settings: There may be specific configuration settings in the SAP system that restrict access to certain data based on user roles or organizational units.
  User Role Changes: If there have been recent changes to user roles or if the user has been assigned to a new organizational unit, this could affect their access rights.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check for authorization failures. This will show you which authorization objects are missing.
  Review the user's roles and profiles in transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance) to ensure they have the necessary permissions to access FTP data.
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the required roles, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles that include access to FTP data.
  Ensure that the roles are correctly configured to include the necessary authorization objects related to pricing and FTP access.
  
  
  
  Consult with SAP Basis or Security Team:
  
  If you are unsure about the required authorizations, consult with your SAP Basis or security team. They can provide insights into the necessary roles and help troubleshoot the issue.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration Settings:

  Testing:
  
  After making changes to user roles or configurations, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved.
