  Missing Redundant Entries: The error suggests that the system is looking for redundant entries (such as duplicate roles or authorizations) for a user but cannot find any. This can happen if the user has not been assigned the necessary roles or if the roles do not have the required authorizations.

  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the roles assigned to the user contain the necessary authorizations. You can use transaction SUIM to check the authorizations associated with the roles.
