SV031 - Details

• The SAP error message SV031 ("Only program & is currently permitted") typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a program or transaction that is not authorized for their user role or profile. This error is part of SAP's security measures to ensure that users can only access programs that they are permitted to run.
  
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the necessary authorizations to execute the program or transaction.
  Program Restrictions: The program may be restricted to certain user roles or profiles, and the current user does not belong to those roles.
  Transaction Codes: The transaction code being used may not be assigned to the user's profile.
