  Cause:
  
  Missing Screen Structure: The specified screen structure (denoted as &3 in the error message) does not exist in the system. This could be due to a configuration error, a missing transport, or an inconsistency in the system.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration in the infotype or the associated screen may be pointing to a non-existent or incorrectly defined structure.
