  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user lacks the required authorizations in their role/profile to execute the transaction or access the data.

  Review the roles assigned to the user and ensure that they include the necessary authorizations for the action being attempted.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator for assistance.
  
  
  
  Testing:
