This error indicates that the system cannot find a corresponding output table for the query operation you are trying to execute.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Mapping: The output table for the query operation is not defined or mapped in the service definition.
  Incorrect Service Definition: The OData service might not be properly defined, or the entity set does not have a corresponding data source.

  Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing access to the data source.
  Service Activation: The OData service may not be activated or properly registered in the SAP Gateway.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Service Definition:
  
  Go to the SAP Gateway Service Builder (transaction code SEGW).
  Open the relevant project and check the entity set for the query operation.
