  The SAP error message FNDEI_VIEW_PROV201 indicates that there are insufficient SELECT privileges for a specific schema assigned to a role in the context of SAP's data provisioning or data access. This error typically arises when a user or role attempts to access a database view or table but lacks the necessary permissions.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to one of the following reasons:
  
  Missing SELECT Privileges: The role assigned to the user does not have the required SELECT privileges on the specified schema.
  Role Assignment Issues: The role may not be properly assigned to the user or may not include the necessary permissions.
  Schema Changes: If there have been recent changes to the database schema, the role may need to be updated to reflect these changes.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the FNDEI_VIEW_PROV201 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Role Assignment:
  
  Ensure that the user has the correct role assigned that is supposed to have access to the schema.
  
  
  
  Grant SELECT Privileges:
  
  If the role does not have the necessary SELECT privileges, you will need to grant them. This can typically be done by a user with administrative privileges (like a database administrator).
  Use the following SQL command to grant SELECT privileges:
  GRANT SELECT ON SCHEMA schema_name TO role_name;
  
  Replace schema_name with the actual schema name and role_name with the role that needs the privileges.
  
  
  
  Review Role Configuration:
  
  Check the role configuration in the SAP system (transaction code PFCG) to ensure that the necessary authorizations are included.
  If needed, regenerate the profile for the role after making changes.
  
  
  
  Test Access:
  
  After making the changes, test the access again to ensure that the error is resolved.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:

  Authorization Objects: 
  
  Check for specific authorization objects related to database access, such as S_TABU_DIS for table access.
  
  
  Database Administration: 
  
  In some cases, you may need to involve your database administrator to ensure that the database permissions are correctly set up.
