  The SAP error message FDT_EXPRESSIONS174: Invalid row index; row index cannot be 0 typically occurs in the context of SAP Fiori or SAP UI5 applications, particularly when dealing with data binding and table controls. This error indicates that there is an attempt to access a row in a table or data structure using an index that is invalid, specifically an index of 0, which is not allowed in this context.
