    WTADDI268: No authorization for updating the IDoc status
    
    Cause
    This error occurs when a user or a process tries to update the status of an IDoc (Intermediate Document) but does not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action. In SAP, updating IDoc statuses is a controlled activity, and specific authorizations are required to change the status of an IDoc (e.g., from "30" - Data passed to the port, to "53" - Application document posted).
    Common causes include:
    
    Missing or insufficient authorization objects in the user’s role/profile.
    The user or background job running the IDoc processing does not have the required permissions.
    Authorization objects related to IDoc processing, such as S_IDOC, are not properly assigned.
