  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/FORCE081 You are not authorized to change object &1 typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary authorization to modify a specific object in the SAP system. This error is related to the authorization checks that SAP performs to ensure that users can only access and modify objects they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization object or the necessary permissions to change the specified object (denoted by &1 in the error message).
  Role Assignment: The user's role may not include the necessary authorizations for the specific transaction or object type.
  Object Type Restrictions: The object type being modified may have specific restrictions that require additional authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to display the last authorization check. This will show which authorization object was missing.
  Review the authorization logs to identify the specific missing authorizations.
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the user's roles using transaction code PFCG to include the required authorization objects.
  If you do not have the necessary permissions, contact your SAP security administrator or the person responsible for user management in your organization.
  
  
  
  Request Additional Authorizations:
  
  If you need additional authorizations, submit a request to your SAP security team or administrator, specifying the object you need access to and the reason for the request.
  
  
  
  Review Object-Specific Authorizations:
  
  Ensure that the user has the correct authorizations for the specific object type being modified. This may involve checking specific authorization objects related to the application or module in question.
  
  
  
  Related Information:

  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing user authorizations and roles.
