  The SAP error message /ISDFPS/WM01048 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorizations to perform a specific action within the SAP system. This typically means that the user does not have the required authorization profiles assigned in their user master record.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Profiles: The user does not have the necessary authorization profiles assigned to their user account.
  Role Assignment: The roles assigned to the user do not include the necessary permissions for the transaction or action they are trying to perform.
  Authorization Object Restrictions: The authorization objects related to the action may have restrictions that the user does not meet.
  User Master Record Issues: There may be issues with the user master record itself, such as it being locked or incorrectly configured.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU01 to display the user master record.
  Check the "Profiles" tab to see if the necessary authorization profiles are assigned.

  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved.
