  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes, contact your SAP security team or administrator to review and adjust the user’s authorizations as needed.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes, test the connection again to ensure that the issue is resolved.
