    The SAP error message UKM_DCD_MSG124 typically indicates that there is an issue with the workflow user not having the necessary authorizations to perform a specific action within the SAP system, even though the message states that the user has the required authorizations. This can be misleading and may arise from several underlying issues.

    3. Workflow Configuration: There may be issues with the workflow configuration itself, such as incorrect settings or missing steps.
    4. User Status: The user might be in a status that restricts their ability to execute certain workflows (e.g., inactive or locked).
    5. Transport Issues: If the workflow was recently transported from a development environment to production, there may be inconsistencies or missing objects.
