  The SAP error message /CPD/AVR_MESSAGE005 indicates that a user is attempting to access data for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This is a common issue in SAP systems where access control is strictly enforced to ensure data security and compliance.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to one or more of the following reasons:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required roles or authorizations assigned to view the specific data object.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to the data being accessed may not include the necessary permissions for the user.
  Role Assignment Issues: The user may not have been assigned the correct roles that include the necessary authorizations.
  Data Segmentation: The data being accessed may be segmented based on organizational units, and the user may not have access to the relevant segments.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to check the user’s profile and the roles assigned to them.
  Review the authorizations in the assigned roles to ensure they include the necessary permissions for the data object in question.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:

  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what is missing.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the roles or create new ones that include the required permissions.
  Use transaction code PFCG to manage roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the necessary authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Test the access again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
