• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ECM010 - No authorization to display the change number ?

  The SAP error message ECM010 ("No authorization to display the change number") typically occurs when a user attempts to access a change number in the Engineering Change Management (ECM) module without having the necessary authorizations. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when trying to view or edit change documents, or when accessing related data.
  
  Cause:

  To resolve the ECM010 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
