  Causes:
  
  Table Deletion: The table may have been deleted or not created in the system.
  Incorrect Table Name: There might be a typo or incorrect naming in the code or configuration that references the table.
  Transport Issues: If the table was created in a different system (like a development environment) and not transported correctly to the current system (like production), it may not exist.
  Database Issues: There could be issues with the database connection or integrity that prevent the system from recognizing the table.
