  The SAP error message EM252, which states "Generation indicators missing in fields with processing type other than 1," typically occurs in the context of data processing or configuration in SAP systems, particularly when dealing with data elements or fields that require specific settings for processing types.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The error usually arises when certain fields in a data structure or table are expected to have generation indicators set, but they are missing. This can happen if the fields are not properly configured in the Data Dictionary (DDIC).
  Processing Type: The error specifically mentions "processing type other than 1," which indicates that the fields in question are expected to have certain attributes or indicators set for processing types that are not the default (processing type 1).
  Data Element Definition: If the data elements associated with the fields do not have the necessary generation indicators defined, this error can occur.

  Review Processing Types:
  
  Understand the processing types being used in your application. If you are using a processing type other than 1, ensure that the fields are configured to support that processing type.
