  Cause:
  
  View Definition Issues: The error may arise if there are inconsistencies or errors in the definition of the views, such as incorrect field mappings, missing fields, or invalid data types.
  Transport Issues: If the views were recently transported from another system, there may be inconsistencies due to missing dependencies or objects.

  Check View Definition: Review the view definition in the ABAP Dictionary (transaction SE11) to ensure that all fields are correctly defined and that there are no inconsistencies.
