  The SAP error message SRAL067, which states "You are not authorized to perform this operation," typically indicates that the user does not have the necessary permissions to execute a specific action or transaction within the SAP system. This can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to access certain reports, execute transactions, or modify data.
  Causes:

  Solutions:

  Transaction Codes: If the error occurs in a specific transaction, check if there are any specific transaction codes that require additional authorizations.
