  Solution:
  
  
  Check Migration Object ID: Ensure that the Migration Object ID you are using is valid and follows the correct naming conventions. It should include both a namespace prefix and a meaningful identifier. For example, instead of just Z_, it should be something like Z_MY_MIGRATION_OBJECT.
  
  
  Modify the Migration Object: If you have access to the configuration, modify the Migration Object ID to include a proper identifier. This can usually be done in the DMC configuration settings.
