  The SAP error message /MOC/OBJECT285 No authorization for: &3 (document type &1, change request type &2) indicates that a user is attempting to access or perform an action on a specific document or change request type for which they do not have the necessary authorizations. This is a common issue in SAP systems where authorization checks are in place to ensure that users can only access data and perform actions that they are permitted to.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Authorizations: The user does not have the required authorization object for the specified document type and change request type.
  Role Assignment: The user’s role may not include the necessary permissions to access the specific document or change request.

  User Profile Changes: Changes in user profiles or roles may have removed previously granted authorizations.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
  
  Use transaction code SU53 immediately after encountering the error to see which authorization check failed. This will provide insight into what specific authorization is missing.

  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorizations, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorization objects.

  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 roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Test the functionality again to confirm that the issue is resolved.
