  Organizational Structure: The user may be restricted from accessing certain personnel numbers based on the organizational structure or company policies.
  Data Protection Regulations: Compliance with data protection regulations may restrict access to sensitive employee information.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Review the user’s roles and profiles in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary authorizations are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or SAP Basis consultant should modify the user’s roles to include the required authorization objects (e.g., P_ORGIN, P_PERNR, etc.) that allow access to the personnel number.
  
  
  
  Authorization Object:
  
  Ensure that the relevant authorization objects are correctly configured. For HR-related access, common authorization objects include:
  
  P_ORGIN: Organizational assignment
