  The SAP error message EI229, which states "Due to missing authorizations, no entries are displayed," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorizations to view certain data or perform specific actions within the SAP system. This can occur in various modules and transactions where user roles and permissions are critical for data access.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user’s role does not include the necessary authorizations to access the data or transaction.

  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that grant access to the required data.
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 to analyze the last authorization check. This transaction will show which authorization objects were checked and which ones failed.
  Authorization Analysis: If you have access, use transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance) to review and modify the roles. Ensure that the necessary authorization objects are included in the roles assigned to the user.
  Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  Testing: After changes are made, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved. It may also be necessary to clear the user’s buffer using transaction SU56.
