This error is related to the authorization management in SAP, specifically concerning user roles and permissions.

    Cause:

    1. Lack of Authorization: The user does not have the required authorization to change default values for the specified application. This is often due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
    2. Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary authorizations for the specific application or transaction.
    3. Application-Specific Restrictions: Certain applications may have additional restrictions or configurations that limit who can change default values.

    Solution:

    1. Check User Authorizations:

      • Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to check the authorization check that failed. This will provide insight into which specific authorization is missing.
      • Alternatively, you can use transaction code SU01 to view the user's profile and roles.
    2. Review and Update Roles:

      • If you have the necessary administrative rights, review the roles assigned to the user in transaction PFCG (Profile Generator).
      • Ensure that the roles include the necessary authorizations for changing default values for the application in question. This may involve adding specific authorization objects related to the application.
    3. Consult with Security Team:

      • If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security or basis team. Provide them with the error message and any relevant details so they can assist in resolving the issue.
    4. Testing:

      • After making changes to roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Test the functionality again to confirm that the error is resolved.

    Related Information:
