  The SAP error message HRSFEC_ECP_INFO007 with the description SY-UNAME &2 not authorized for PERNR &1 indicates that the user (SY-UNAME &2) does not have the necessary authorization to access or perform actions on the personnel number (PERNR &1) specified in the error message. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only access data they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization object to access the specified personnel number. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Personnel Number Restrictions: The personnel number may be restricted based on organizational units or other criteria that the user does not have access to.
  Configuration Errors: There may be configuration issues in the authorization roles or profiles that are assigned to the user.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to check the user profile of SY-UNAME &2.
  Review the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorization objects for accessing the specified personnel number.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  The relevant authorization objects for personnel administration typically include P_ORGIN (Organizational Management) and P_PERNR (Personnel Number).
  Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations for these objects, particularly for the personnel number in question.
  
  
  
  Adjust Roles and Profiles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to adjust their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Work with your SAP security team to ensure that the user is granted the appropriate access.
  
  
  
  Test Access:
  
  After making changes, test the access again to ensure that the user can now access the personnel number without encountering the error.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
