This error can occur during the synchronization process of business objects, particularly when there are inconsistencies or issues with the underlying data model.
  Causes:
  
  Inconsistent Data Model: The data model defined in the CDS view may not match the underlying database table structure, leading to synchronization issues.
  Missing or Incorrect Annotations: Annotations in the CDS view may be missing or incorrectly defined, which can cause problems during the generation of the data structure.

  Transport Issues: If the changes were transported from one system to another, there may be inconsistencies in the transport that lead to this error.
