This error typically arises in the context of contract management or financial agreements within the SAP system, particularly in the SAP Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable (FI-CA) module.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by insufficient authorization for the user attempting to modify the master agreement. The authorization type mentioned in the error message (&1) specifies the particular type of authorization that is lacking. This could be related to specific transaction codes, object types, or fields that the user is trying to access or modify.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show you which authorization objects are missing for the user.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user's profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles assigned that include the necessary authorizations for changing master agreements. This may involve checking the roles assigned to the user in transaction PFCG.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the required authorizations, you may need to modify the existing roles or create a new role that includes the necessary authorizations for the master agreement changes.
  Ensure that the authorization object related to the master agreement (e.g., FKKMA) is included in the role with the correct activity (e.g., change).
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help you identify the required authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect. Then, attempt to change the master agreement again.
