  The SAP error message S_UNIFIED_CON088 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to read statistical data records of other users. This typically occurs in scenarios where a user attempts to access data that is restricted based on authorization profiles.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by insufficient authorization in the user's role or profile. In SAP, access to certain data is controlled through authorization objects, and if a user tries to access data that they are not permitted to see, this error will be triggered.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This will show you the last authorization check and help identify which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Profile Generator). Ensure that the user has the necessary roles that include access to the required authorization objects.
  
  
  
  Modify Authorization Profiles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify the existing roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations. This may involve adding specific authorization objects related to statistical data access.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can assist in reviewing and updating the user's authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to test if the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: The specific authorization objects that may be relevant include S_USER_AUTH, S_USER_PRO, or any other object related to the specific data the user is trying to access.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
  Audit Logs: If necessary, check audit logs to see if there are any patterns or repeated occurrences of this error for other users, which may indicate a broader issue with role assignments.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to identify and resolve the authorization issue causing the S_UNIFIED_CON088 error.
