• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KH792 - You are not authorized to display the currency type ?

  The SAP error message KH792, which states "You are not authorized to display the currency type," typically occurs when a user attempts to access or display a currency type for which they do not have the necessary authorizations.

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the necessary access.
