This error typically occurs in the context of a data migration or conversion process, particularly when using the SAP S/4HANA Migration Cockpit or similar tools.
  Cause:

  Missing Data: The source system may not have the required user data, or the data extraction process may have failed to retrieve it.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Populate the User Table:
  
  Check if the user data is available in the source system. If it is, ensure that the data extraction process is correctly configured to populate the CNV_00001_USR table.
  If the data is not available, you may need to manually enter the required user data or adjust the extraction process to include it.
  
  
  
  Review Migration Settings:
  
  Go through the migration settings and ensure that all necessary configurations are in place. This includes checking the mapping of user data and ensuring that the correct source tables are being referenced.
  
  
  
  Run Data Extraction Again:
  
  If you suspect that the data extraction process failed, try running it again to see if it populates the user table correctly.
