This is a common issue in systems with strict authorization controls, especially in modules like CRM where sensitive customer and marketing data is handled.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises due to one or more of the following reasons:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorizations to view marketing segments.
  Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned the correct role that includes the required permissions.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: There may be restrictions in the authorization objects related to marketing segments that the user does not meet.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be correctly configured to allow access to the required data.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:

  Modify Roles:

  Use transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance) to manage roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
