  The SAP error message GZ393, which states "You do not have update run authorization," typically occurs when a user attempts to execute a transaction or process that requires specific authorization to perform updates in the system. This error is often related to the authorization roles assigned to the user in the SAP system.

  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect. Then, attempt the update run again.
