This is caused by lack of permission in a specific type of field (Standard, Background, Userinfo) in Manage Business Configuration UI.

To provide the necessary permission, you need to go to Manage Permission Roles, and select the role you want to allow to edit those fields in BCUI. Under administrator Permissions, Manage Business Configuration, choose the visibility and actions allowed for the objects listed. Provide view/edit permission as required for Standard, Background or Userinfo Elements.
