  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:

  Assign Necessary Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary roles, work with your SAP security team to assign the appropriate roles that include permissions for creating GPDs for the specified SXP type.
  
  
  
  Review Authorization Objects:
  
  Check the relevant authorization objects (e.g., S_SPO_DEV, S_SPO_GPD) to ensure that they are correctly configured to allow the user to create GPDs.
  Ensure that the authorization profiles are updated and that the user has the necessary permissions for the specific document type.
  
  
  
  Testing:
  
  After making changes to the user’s roles or authorizations, have the user log out and log back in to ensure that the changes take effect.
  Attempt to create the GPD again to verify that the issue has been resolved.
