  The SAP error message 50155, "Action manager: Error inserting in table &1," typically indicates that there is an issue with inserting data into a specific database table during the execution of an action in the Action Manager. This error can arise due to various reasons, including database constraints, data integrity issues, or configuration problems.
  Possible Causes:
  
  Database Constraints: The table may have constraints (like primary key, foreign key, or unique constraints) that are being violated by the data being inserted.
  Data Type Mismatch: The data being inserted may not match the expected data types defined in the table schema.
