  The SAP error message FCO_RUN_ALLOCATION013 indicates that a user is attempting to execute a test run for a financial allocation process but lacks the necessary authorizations to do so. This error typically arises in the context of financial allocations, such as cost center allocations or internal orders, where specific permissions are required to perform test runs.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is insufficient authorization for the user role attempting to execute the test run. This can happen due to:
  
  Missing Authorization Objects: The user may not have the required authorization objects assigned to their role.
  Role Configuration: The user's role may not be configured correctly to allow for test runs in the allocation process.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not include the necessary permissions for the specific transaction or function.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FCO_RUN_ALLOCATION013 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Go to transaction PFCG to review the roles assigned to the user. Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects for executing test runs in the allocation process.

  F_BKPF_BES (Accounting Document: Authorization for Document Type)
  F_FICA_CUS (Customer Master Data)
  F_FI_DOC (Financial Document)
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
