  The SAP error message S_AUT055 indicates that there is no change document object registered for the selected table. This typically occurs when you are trying to access change documents for a table that does not have change document functionality enabled.
  Cause:
  
  No Change Document Object: The table you are trying to access does not have a change document object defined in the system. Change documents are used to track changes to data in certain tables, and not all tables have this functionality.

  Create Change Document Object: If the table should have change documents, you may need to create a change document object for it. This can be done using transaction SCDO (Change Document Objects). You will need to define the object and specify the fields that should be tracked.
  Activate Change Document: If a change document object already exists but is not activated, you may need to activate it. This can also be done in transaction SCDO.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or ABAP team to ensure that the change document functionality is set up correctly for the specific table you are working with.
