  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The primary cause of this error is that the user does not have the required authorization to view the specific target group. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
  Target Group Restrictions: The target group may have specific restrictions or settings that limit access to certain users or roles.
  Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned to the correct role that includes access to the target group.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insights into which specific authorization object is missing.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations for accessing target groups.
  Ensure that the role includes the necessary authorization objects related to CRM target groups, such as CRM_MKTTG_TG or similar.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Check Target Group Settings:
  
  Review the settings of the target group in question to ensure that there are no specific restrictions that would prevent access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
