  Profile Issues: The user profile may not be updated or may have been incorrectly configured.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Roles:

  Authorization Objects:
  
  The specific authorization object that may be relevant is S_TCODE (Transaction Code) and S_APO_RES (Authorization for Resources in APO).

  This can be done using transaction code PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to see if the issue is resolved.
  Test the access to the resource hierarchy again.
  
  
  
  Consult Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
