This error typically arises in the Financial Services sector, particularly in modules related to loans and financial products.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a lack of appropriate authorization in the user's role or profile for the specified product category (denoted by &1). This can happen due to:

  Incorrect Role Assignment: The user may not be assigned the correct role that includes permissions for the required product category.
  Product Category Configuration: The product category itself may have specific restrictions or configurations that limit access based on user roles.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Review the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for the product category in question.

  If the necessary authorizations are missing, you may need to modify the role using transaction PFCG. Add the required authorization objects that correspond to the product category.
  Ensure that the authorization values are set correctly to allow access to the specific product category.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security or basis team. They can assist in reviewing and updating the user’s roles and authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
