  The SAP error message J-326 indicates that there is an issue with authorization checks related to a specific object or transaction. The message states that the system is unable to check the authorization for a particular object because it is not unique, which means that there are multiple entries that match the criteria, leading to ambiguity.
  Cause:
  
  Non-Unique Authorization Objects: The error typically arises when the authorization check is looking for a specific object (like a transaction code or authorization object) but finds multiple entries that match the criteria. This can happen if there are duplicate entries in the authorization tables or if the configuration is not set up correctly.
  Missing or Incorrect Authorizations: The user may not have the necessary authorizations assigned to them, or the roles assigned to the user may not be configured correctly.
  Role Conflicts: If a user has multiple roles that provide conflicting authorizations, it can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Authorization Objects: Review the authorization objects related to the transaction or action that is causing the error. Ensure that there are no duplicate entries in the authorization tables.
  Review User Roles: Check the roles assigned to the user who is encountering the error. Make sure that the roles are correctly configured and that they provide the necessary authorizations without conflicts.
  Use Transaction SU53: After encountering the error, use transaction SU53 to analyze the last authorization check. This transaction provides detailed information about which authorizations were checked and which ones failed.
  Adjust Authorizations: If necessary, adjust the authorizations in the user roles or create new roles that provide the required access without ambiguity.
  Consult with Security Team: If you are not able to resolve the issue, consult with your SAP security team or administrator for further assistance. They can help analyze the authorization setup and make necessary adjustments.
  
  Related Information:
