  The primary cause of this error is a lack of appropriate authorization in the user's role or profile. In SAP, authorization checks are performed to ensure that users have the necessary rights to execute specific transactions or access certain data.

  To resolve the GG081 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error. This will show you the last authorization check that failed and provide insights into which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects for archiving in FI-SL.
