  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be configured correctly to include the required permissions.
  Selection Class Restrictions: The selection class itself may have restrictions that prevent certain users from making changes.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).

  Review Selection Class Settings:
