  Cause:
  
  
  Data Overlap Issues: The error often arises when the system is trying to process transactions that require overlapping data (e.g., payment runs, document postings) but cannot find any. This could be due to:

  Check for any inconsistencies in the data that might prevent overlapping entries from being found.
