  The SAP error message ESH_SQL_SEARCH038 indicates that there is an issue with the access privileges for the HANA database schema specified in the error message. This typically occurs when a user or application does not have the necessary permissions to access the specified schema in the SAP HANA database.
  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following reasons:
  
  Insufficient Privileges: The user or role attempting to access the schema does not have the required privileges (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc.) on the specified schema.
  Schema Ownership: The schema may be owned by a different user, and the current user does not have the necessary access rights.
  Role Assignment: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary privileges for the schema.

  Solution:

  Grant Necessary Privileges:
  
  If the user does not have the required privileges, you can grant them using the following SQL command:
  GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON SCHEMA "<schema_name>" TO "<username>";
  
  Replace <schema_name> with the name of the schema and <username> with the actual username.
