  Data Object Configuration: The data object may not have been properly configured to link to a database table.
  Missing Database Table: The database table that the data object is supposed to reference may not exist or may not be activated.
  Incorrect Data Object Type: The data object might be of a type that does not support database binding.
  Transport Issues: If the data object was transported from one system to another, it may not have been properly set up in the target system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Data Object Configuration:

  Review Data Object Type:
