  The SAP error message DB6PM036 indicates that there is a missing administration authority for a specific database object, which prevents maintenance operations from being performed on that object. This error typically arises in the context of database administration, particularly when dealing with database objects such as tables, views, or schemas.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Privileges: The user or role attempting to perform the operation does not have the necessary permissions or privileges to access or modify the specified database object.
  Object Ownership: The object may be owned by a different user or schema, and the current user does not have the required rights to perform maintenance tasks on it.
  Database Configuration: There may be specific configurations or restrictions set at the database level that limit access to certain objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Privileges:
  
  Verify the privileges of the user or role that is encountering the error. Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to perform maintenance on the specified object.
  You may need to grant additional privileges such as SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, or specific administrative rights depending on the operation being attempted.
