This error typically arises in scenarios where users are trying to manage or monitor interface messages but lack the required permissions.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is a lack of authorization for the user role that is trying to restart the messages. In SAP, authorization checks are performed to ensure that users have the necessary permissions to execute specific actions, such as restarting messages in AIF.
  Solution:

  Ensure that the user has the necessary permissions to execute the action of restarting messages.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you are not authorized to make changes to user roles or authorizations, consult with your SAP security team or administrator. They can help identify the necessary authorizations and make the required adjustments.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the new permissions take effect. Then, attempt to restart the messages again.
