  The SAP error message TFC0106 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to access a specific Office document class and type. This error typically occurs when trying to open or manipulate Office documents (like Word, Excel, etc.) that are stored in the SAP system.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by a lack of authorization in the user's role or profile for the specific document class and type. This can happen due to:

  Incorrect Role Assignment: The user's role may not include the necessary permissions for the document type they are trying to access.

  Solution:
  To resolve the TFC0106 error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:
