  The SAP error message CNV_DMC_SIN353 typically occurs during data migration processes, particularly when using the SAP Data Migration Cockpit (DMC) or similar tools. This error indicates that the system requires a valuation type for a specific material, batch, and plant combination, but it is not provided or is missing.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Valuation Type: The valuation type for the specified material and batch in the given plant is not defined in the system.
  Incorrect Data Mapping: The data being migrated may not have the correct mapping or may be incomplete, leading to missing valuation type information.

  Review Migration Data:
