  The SAP error message TB568 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to perform a comparison in the specified client. This typically occurs when a user attempts to access or compare data in a client where they lack the required authorization object, specifically S_TABU_DIS, which controls table access permissions.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of the required authorization for the user in the comparison client. The S_TABU_DIS authorization object is used to manage access to database tables and their fields.
