  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to perform the action does not have the required authorization object to change performance documents. This could be due to missing roles or authorizations in their user profile.
  Processor Restrictions: The specific processor (indicated by &1 in the error message) may have restrictions that prevent certain users from making changes.
  Configuration Settings: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict access to performance documents based on user roles or organizational units.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to check which authorization checks failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorizations are missing.
  Review the user’s roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG to ensure that the necessary authorizations for changing performance documents are included.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:

  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.
  
  
  
  Review Configuration:
  
  Check the configuration settings in the EWM system to ensure that there are no restrictions placed on the processor or the performance documents that could be causing the issue.
  
  
  
  Testing:
