  Review Changes: Check the change logs or version history of the object that has been modified. Understand what changes were made and how they impact the eCATT script.
  Update the Script: Modify the eCATT script to align with the new structure or data of the object. This may involve updating field names, data types, or logic within the script.
  Re-Test: After making the necessary updates, re-run the eCATT script to ensure that it works correctly with the modified object.
