On quicker note-

User- You need to have an user ID to access your requested system. A business user ID created by referring a reference user or directly am user can be created by GRC/Basis team.

Roles: Role are created to perform a transaction. Role/s is/are created and assigned to an user by GRC/Basis with SU01

Authorization: You need to have access to perform a transaction with certain criteria's and this need to be done by GRC/Basis team after business approval. In case you do not have access - you can share SU53 screen details to get authorisation!
