  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:

  Look for roles that include authorization objects related to model creation in APO, specifically the authorization object C_APO_MDL (or similar, depending on your system configuration).
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user does not have the necessary authorizations, you may need to assign additional roles that include the required permissions.
  If you have the necessary administrative rights, you can modify the user's roles using transaction code PFCG to add the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change user roles, contact your SAP security or basis team. They can help you identify the correct roles and authorizations needed for model creation.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user's authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new authorizations take effect.
  Attempt to create the model again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
