  The SAP error message RSEC324 indicates that there is a discrepancy between the active and revised versions of an authorization object. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's authorization management, particularly when dealing with roles and authorizations in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error arises when:
  
  The active version of an authorization object (which is currently in use) differs from the revised version (which may have been modified but not yet activated).
