  The SAP error message HRMP_SERVICE_MSG001 ("You are not authorized to process this candidate") typically occurs in the context of SAP SuccessFactors or SAP HCM (Human Capital Management) when a user attempts to access or process a candidate's information without the necessary permissions.
  Cause:
  
  Insufficient Authorizations: The user does not have the required roles or authorizations assigned to their user profile to view or process the candidate's data.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific actions they are trying to perform (e.g., viewing, editing, or processing candidate information).
  Data Privacy Settings: There may be data privacy settings in place that restrict access to certain candidate information based on user roles or organizational policies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user encountering the error. Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include permissions for candidate processing.
  Adjust Authorizations: If the user lacks the necessary permissions, an administrator should adjust the authorization settings in the SAP system. This may involve:

  Creating a new role with the necessary permissions and assigning it to the user.
  
  
  Consult Security Team: If you are not an administrator, contact your SAP security or HR team to review and update your access rights.
  Review Data Privacy Settings: Ensure that any data privacy settings are not overly restrictive and are aligned with organizational policies.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Administrators can use transaction codes like PFCG (Profile Generator) to manage roles and authorizations.
