  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of necessary authorizations assigned to the user role. The user attempting to create a collection strategy does not have the required permissions in the authorization object related to collection strategies.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs. This will show you the last authorization check that failed and provide insight into which specific authorization object is missing.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Roles:
  
  Check the roles assigned to the user in transaction SU01 (User Maintenance). Ensure that the user has the appropriate roles that include permissions for creating collection strategies.

  F_BKPF_BWA (Authorization for Document Management)
  F_UDEB (Authorization for Collection Strategy)
  
  
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. They can help you identify the missing authorizations and make the necessary adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After the necessary authorizations have been assigned, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, attempt to create the collection strategy again.
