  The SAP error message HRPBSQA050, which states "No Authorization to change the data," typically occurs when a user attempts to perform an action that requires specific authorizations that they do not possess. This error is common in SAP systems, particularly in the Human Resources (HR) module, where sensitive employee data is managed.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the necessary authorization roles or permissions to change the specific data they are trying to access.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to HR data (like P_ORGIN, P_PERNR, etc.) may not be properly configured for the user.

  Solution:
  
  Check User Roles: Verify that the user has the appropriate roles assigned. This can be done by checking the user’s profile in transaction code SU01.
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Adjust Authorizations: If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, a security administrator or someone with the appropriate permissions should adjust the user’s roles or modify the authorization objects to include the required permissions.
  Consult with Security Team: If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP security team or basis team to ensure that the user has the correct access rights.
  Check for Data Locks: If the data is locked, check with the user who might be holding the lock or investigate if there are any background jobs that might be causing the lock.
