  Profile Issues: The user’s profile may not be correctly configured to include the necessary authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary access to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator. Provide them with the details of the error and the document type you are trying to release.
