  Database Locking Issues: The table may be locked by another process, preventing access or updates.
  Data Consistency Errors: There may be inconsistencies in the data stored in the tables, which can lead to errors during processing.
  Table Structure Changes: Changes to the table structure (like adding or removing fields) that have not been properly managed can cause issues.
