  The SAP error message /IWNGW/CM_HUB018 RFC Error: User misses authorization object typically indicates that the user attempting to perform an operation does not have the necessary authorizations to execute the requested action. This error is often encountered in the context of Remote Function Calls (RFC) when the user lacks specific authorization objects required for the operation.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user does not have the required authorization object assigned in their user profile. This could be due to a lack of roles or profiles that include the necessary authorizations.
  Role Assignment: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the specific transaction or function module being called.
  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be updated or may have been incorrectly configured, leading to missing authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction SU01 to check the user’s authorizations.
  Review the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Identify Required Authorization Objects:

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to resolve the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
