This error typically arises when a user attempts to perform an action that their user role does not permit.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user lacks the required authorization object to delete packaging specifications. This could be due to missing roles or insufficient permissions assigned to the user profile.

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to change roles, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the necessary permissions.
  
  
  
  Check for Object-Specific Restrictions:
  
  Verify if there are any specific restrictions on the packaging specification that might prevent deletion. This could include dependencies on other objects or statuses that need to be resolved first.
