  The SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_REP203 typically indicates an authorization issue related to the Object Model in the SAP Enterprise Search (SAP ESH). This error occurs when a user attempts to access a function or data for which they do not have the necessary authorizations.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a lack of authorization for the user to access specific objects or fields defined in the authorization object. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorizations assigned in their user profile.
  Incorrect Role Assignment: The roles assigned to the user do not include the necessary authorizations for the specific object model or field.
  Changes in Authorization Objects: If there have been recent changes to the authorization objects or roles, it may lead to this error if the user’s roles have not been updated accordingly.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.

  Ensure that the user has the correct roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for the object model in question.
  You can use transaction code PFCG to review and modify roles.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the required authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the roles to include the necessary authorization objects and fields.

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to address the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
