This error can occur in various contexts, such as when trying to preview data in the ABAP Development Tools (ADT) or when executing a query that references a non-existent object.
  Cause:
  
  Object Does Not Exist: The most straightforward cause is that the object you are trying to access has not been created or has been deleted.
  Incorrect Naming: There may be a typo in the name of the object you are trying to access, leading to the system not being able to find it.

  Check Schema/Client: Make sure you are connected to the correct schema and client where the object is supposed to exist.
