This error typically occurs in the context of SAP HANA when a user tries to execute a query or access data for which they do not have the necessary authorizations.

  Missing Authorization: The user does not have the required SQL authorization object assigned to their role. This can happen if the role was not properly configured or if the user has not been granted the necessary permissions.
  Role Assignment Issues: The role that is supposed to provide the necessary authorizations may not be assigned to the user or may not include the required authorizations.

  Review Role Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code PFCG to review the role configuration.

  Add Missing Authorizations:
  
  If the authorization object is not assigned, you can add it by editing the role in PFCG.
  Ensure that the necessary authorizations are granted for the SQL object in question.
  
  
  
  Generate Profile:
