  The SAP error message "26184 Object & & does not exist" typically indicates that the system is unable to find a specific object (such as a table, program, function module, or other repository object) that is referenced in your transaction or program.

  Check Object Existence: Verify if the object exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes like SE11 (for tables), SE80 (for various objects), or SE37 (for function modules).
