  Cause:
  This error generally arises when a query or report is trying to access a view or characteristic that has not been properly configured with a company code.

  Ensure that the company code characteristic is assigned to the InfoObject or view that is generating the error.
  
  
  
  Modify the Query:
  
  If the query is not supposed to use a company code, you may need to modify the query to exclude the company code characteristic.
  
  
  
  Update the Data Model:
  
  If the characteristic is part of a data model, ensure that the data model is correctly configured to include the necessary company code assignments.
  
  
  
  Re-activate the InfoObject:
  
  Sometimes, re-activating the InfoObject can help. Go to the InfoObject maintenance and re-activate it.
  
  
  
  Check Authorization:
  
  Ensure that the user executing the query has the necessary authorizations to access the company code data.
