  The SAP error message OQ013 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to display a specific table or transaction. This error typically arises when a user attempts to access a table or transaction for which they lack the required permissions, specifically in the context of authorization groups.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization for the specified authorization group associated with the table or transaction.
  Authorization Group Restrictions: The table or transaction is restricted by an authorization group, and the user's role does not include access to that group.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not be configured correctly to include the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles: Verify the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include access to the required authorization group.
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects: Use transaction SU53 immediately after encountering the error to analyze the authorization check. This transaction shows the last authorization check and can help identify which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  Modify Roles: If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify the user's roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This can be done in transaction PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  Authorization Group Assignment: Ensure that the relevant tables or transactions are assigned to the correct authorization groups and that the user’s role includes access to those groups.
  
  
  Consult with Security Team: If you do not have the necessary permissions to make changes, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
