  The SAP error message ILM_STOR_MON059 indicates that a user is missing the necessary authorization to perform a specific activity related to Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) storage monitoring. The placeholder &1 in the message typically represents the specific activity for which the authorization is lacking.
  Cause:
  The error occurs when a user attempts to execute a transaction or function in the ILM storage monitoring area without having the required authorizations. This can happen due to:

  Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects required for the activity are not included in the user's profile.
  Profile Changes: Changes in roles or authorizations that have not been updated or assigned to the user.

  To resolve the ILM_STOR_MON059 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Activity: Check the specific activity indicated by &1 in the error message to understand what action the user was trying to perform.

  If the user is missing roles, assign the necessary roles that include the required authorizations for ILM activities.
  Consult with your SAP security team or administrator to ensure the correct roles are assigned.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the roles are correct but the user still faces issues, check the specific authorization objects related to ILM activities (e.g., S_ILM_*).
