This error is often encountered during the use of SAP Landscape Transformation (SLT) or other data migration tools.
  Cause:
  
  
  Missing Data Type: The error suggests that a specific data type (denoted by & in the message) is not defined in the system. This could be due to:

  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration issues in the SLT settings or the data replication setup that lead to the system not recognizing the required data type.

  Solution:
  
  
  Check Data Type Definition:
  
  Verify that the data type mentioned in the error message exists in the relevant SAP system. You can do this by checking the Data Dictionary (transaction SE11) for the specific data type.
