  The SAP error message M8_2139, which states "No Print authorization for company code &," typically occurs when a user attempts to print documents (such as purchase orders, invoices, etc.) for a company code for which they do not have the necessary authorization.
  Cause:
  
  Authorization Issues: The user does not have the required authorization to print documents for the specified company code. This is often due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
  User Role Configuration: The roles assigned to the user may not include the necessary transaction codes or authorization objects related to printing.
  Company Code Settings: The company code may have specific settings that restrict printing to certain users or groups.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed.
  Review the user's roles and authorizations using transaction code SU01 (User Maintenance) or PFCG (Role Maintenance).
  
  
  
  Modify User Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to add the appropriate roles that include print authorization for the relevant company code.
  Ensure that the roles assigned to the user include the necessary authorization objects, such as S_PROGRAM, S_TCODE, or any specific authorization objects related to printing.
  
  
  
  Consult with Security Team:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to modify user roles, contact your SAP security or basis team to request the required authorizations.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Test the printing functionality again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Authorization Objects: Common authorization objects related to printing include S_SPO_DEV (for spool requests) and S_SPO_TCD (for transaction codes).
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SP01 (to view spool requests) and SP02 (to manage spool requests).
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's internal guidelines for managing user roles and authorizations.
  
  If the issue persists after checking and updating authorizations, further investigation may be required, potentially involving SAP support or deeper analysis of the system configuration.
