  Change in Structure Definition: The structure type has been modified in the system, which can happen due to updates, changes in the data model, or adjustments made by developers.

  Check for Updates: Ensure that you are using the latest version of the migration templates and that your system is up to date with the latest changes in the data model.
  Consult Documentation: Review the SAP documentation or release notes for any changes that might have affected the structure types.
  Testing: After making the changes, perform tests to ensure that the data migration process works as expected without further errors.
