  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorization Object: The user may not have the required authorization object assigned to their user profile.

  Authorization Profile: The authorization profile assigned to the user may not include the necessary permissions for the action they are trying to perform.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
