This error typically occurs in the context of SAP Time Management or related modules where user access to employee data is restricted based on authorization roles.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user attempting to access the Employee ID does not have the required authorizations assigned in their user profile.

  Object Level Security: The authorization objects related to employee data access may not be properly configured or assigned to the user.
  Employee ID Restrictions: There may be specific restrictions on accessing certain employee records based on organizational structure or other criteria.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to analyze the authorization check. This will show which authorization object failed.
  Review the user’s roles and profiles in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles that include access to employee data.
  Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects, such as P_ORGIN, P_PERNR, or any other relevant objects for employee data access.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Objects:
  
  If the roles are correct but the user still cannot access the data, check the configuration of the authorization objects. Ensure that the necessary fields (like Employee ID) are included in the authorization checks.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Familiarize yourself with the relevant authorization objects for employee data access, such as:
