When I create document in Microsoft word document in mac and try to save it, it gives me options to save data to local storage, OneDrive and additionally it shows 'Manage Storage accounts'
Manage Storage accounts >> shows OneDrive, Dropbox, Box, Egnyte, ShareFile, iManage online storage account options.
Can we disable all these options via PPPC file/script/Config policy? anybody faced this issue?

I would not exactly call it an issue, nothing is broken, this is a request. Below is the link to Microsoft’s website listing all the management options for MS Office on Mac that would be set with a Configuration Profile. This is not something PPPC would be involved with, and I dont think you can “hide” this with a script.

I'd also recommend using your firewall to block this traffic. These management settings won't stop a user from saving locally and then uploading to one of those services. You could also use Restricted Software to prevent users from using the Client apps for these respective services too.
