  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to roles or authorizations, test the workflow again to ensure that the user can now execute the transaction without encountering the error.
