This can happen for several reasons, and here are some common causes, solutions, and related information:

    Causes:

    1. Missing Screen Definition: The screen (dynpro) has not been defined in the program or has been deleted.
    2. Incorrect Program/Transaction: The program or transaction code being executed is incorrect or does not correspond to the expected screen.
    3. Transport Issues: If the program or screen was recently transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), the transport may not have included the necessary screen definitions.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the screen.
    5. Program Errors: There may be a coding error in the ABAP program that is causing it to reference a non-existent screen.

    Solutions:

    1. Check Screen Definition: Verify that the screen number being called exists in the program. You can do this by checking the program in the ABAP Workbench (SE80 or SE38).
    2. Review Transaction Code: Ensure that the transaction code you are using is correct and corresponds to the right program and screen.
    3. Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included and successfully imported.
    4. Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the program and screen. You can check this in transaction SU53 after the error occurs.
    5. Debugging: If you have access to the ABAP code, you can debug the program to see where it is trying to call the non-existent screen and why.
    6. Recreate the Screen: If the screen was deleted or is missing, you may need to recreate it in the ABAP Workbench.

    Related Information:
