  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the user has the roles but still encounters the error, check the authorization objects associated with those roles. You may need to modify the authorization objects to include the necessary permissions.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are unsure about which roles or authorizations are needed, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify the correct roles and ensure that the user has the necessary access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
