    Cause:

    1. RFC Connection Issues: The error may occur if there is a problem with the RFC connection to the target system. This could be due to network issues, incorrect configuration, or the target system being down.
    2. Authorization Problems: The user executing the eCATT script may not have the necessary authorizations to perform the actions defined in the script.
    3. Function Module Errors: The function module being called may not exist, may have been changed, or may be encountering its own internal errors.
