  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The primary cause of this error is that the user’s role does not include the necessary authorizations to display specific orders. This could be due to missing authorization objects or incorrect role assignments.
  Order Status: The orders in question may have a status that restricts visibility based on user roles.
  User Profile: The user profile may not be configured correctly to access the required data.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:
  
  Go to transaction SU01 (User Maintenance) and enter the user ID.
  Check the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for displaying orders in APO.

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
