Environment

Reproducing the Issue
- Attempt to delete a comment on a dimension cell within a planning story/application.
- Observe the error message: "Please ensure current user has the required permissions to delete dimension comments."
Cause
Missing or incomplete permission combination across the required authorization layers (tenant, model, and story), with a missing model-level permission identified.
Resolution
- Verify tenant role permissions:
- Ensure the user's role has Read, Create, and Delete permissions on the Comment object.
- Verify model permissions:
- Ensure the planning model grants Add Comment, View Comment, and Delete Comment (for all relevant dimension member combinations).
- If Data Access Control (DAC) is enabled, also verify that the affected users have the required write access to the relevant data intersections.
- Verify story permissions:
- In Share/Custom Access for the story, ensure Add Comment, View Comment, and Delete Comment are granted.
- Apply any missing permissions and refresh the story.
