You cannot specify CREATE AUTHORIZATION in a macro because the authorization password is not saved in either encrypted or unencrypted form. This would compromise the security of the OS logon user ID. See CREATE AUTHORIZATION and REPLACE AUTHORIZATION.

Otherwise, the system returns an error to the requestor.
