    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.

    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.
