This error typically arises when the system is unable to find a valid configuration for the specified grouping in relation to the country grouping.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The specified parameter area determination grouping (grpg &1) does not exist in the system for the specified country grouping (grpg &2). This could be due to a missing entry in the configuration tables.
  Incorrect Customization: The configuration for the area determination may not have been set up correctly, or it may have been deleted or not transported properly from a development environment to production.

  Verify that the groupings for both the parameter area determination and the country grouping are correctly defined and exist in the system.
  
  
  
  Create or Adjust Entries:

  Transport Issues:
  
  If this issue arose after a transport, check if the transport included all necessary objects and configurations. You may need to re-transport or manually adjust the settings.
