  Cause:
  The error is usually caused by one of the following issues:
  
  Missing Derivation: The record in question is trying to reference a super type (a parent object) that does not have a proper derivation or is not defined correctly in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be an inconsistency in the configuration settings where the system expects a derived type but finds a reference to a super type instead.

  Review Derivations:
  
  Ensure that all necessary derivations for the super type are in place. This may involve checking the settings in the IMG or the relevant customizing transactions.
  If a derived type is missing, create it or adjust the existing configuration to ensure that it properly derives from the super type.
  
  
  
  Data Consistency Check:
  
  Run consistency checks on the configuration data to identify any discrepancies or missing links between the super type and its derived types.
  Use transaction codes like SPRO to access the configuration settings and check for any inconsistencies.
