  The SAP error message DD_MT_SHARING036 indicates that there is no entry found in the table MTSHCONTAINER for the specified SHARED_CONTAINER_NAME. This error typically arises in the context of using shared memory or shared containers in SAP, particularly when trying to access or manipulate shared data that has not been properly defined or initialized.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Entry: The most common cause is that the specified shared container name does not exist in the MTSHCONTAINER table. This could happen if the container was never created or if it was deleted.
  Incorrect Configuration: There may be a configuration issue where the shared container is not properly set up in the system.

  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user executing the operation has the necessary authorizations to access the shared container.
