  The SAP error message /PLMI/PRT_BO025 indicates that a user is attempting to delete a record or object but does not have the necessary authorization to perform that action. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only perform actions that they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Lack of Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization object assigned to their user profile to delete the specific record or object.
  Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for deletion.
  Object-Specific Restrictions: Certain objects may have specific restrictions that prevent deletion based on business rules or configurations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.
  Alternatively, you can use transaction SU01 to view the user’s profile and roles.
  
  
  
  Review Role Assignments:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorization objects for deletion. The relevant authorization objects may include S_DATA, S_TCODE, or specific objects related to the module you are working with.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can modify the roles to include the required authorizations. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to request the necessary changes.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Review the documentation for the specific module or transaction you are working with to understand the required authorizations for deletion.
