  Authorization Profiles: These are collections of authorizations that define what actions a user can perform in the SAP system. They are crucial for maintaining security and ensuring users have the necessary permissions.
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as:
  
  SU01: User Maintenance
  PFCG: Role Maintenance (to create or modify roles that contain authorization profiles)
  
  
  User Roles: Instead of assigning individual profiles, consider using roles that bundle multiple profiles together for easier management.
  Authorization Checks: If users continue to face issues, check the authorization checks in the system to ensure that the profiles assigned are sufficient for the tasks they need to perform.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the O4151 error and ensure that users have the necessary access to perform their duties in the SAP system.
