  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.

  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to execute the function module again to verify that the issue is resolved.
