  The SAP error message KCCO051 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to access the comment table in the context of a specific transaction or report. This error typically arises in the context of controlling (CO) or financial reporting where comments or notes are associated with cost centers, internal orders, or other financial objects.
  Cause:
