  Product Status: The product may be in a status that does not allow changes (e.g., released or locked).
  Organizational Level Restrictions: The user may not have access to the organizational units associated with the product.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:

  Ensure that the authorization objects related to product changes (e.g., C_PPH_PROD for product management) are included in the user's role.
  
  
  
  Check Product Status:
  
  Verify the status of the product. If it is in a status that does not allow changes, you may need to change the status or unlock the product.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
