  Cause:
  This error typically occurs when:
  
  Key Length Exceeded: The combined length of the keys defined in the structure exceeds the maximum allowed length for that particular object type or action.
  Configuration Issues: There may be a misconfiguration in the data model or structure definitions that leads to an oversized key.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model or structure definitions that have not been properly accounted for in the application logic.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Review Structure Definition:
  
  Check the definition of the structure mentioned in the error message (structure &2). Ensure that the key fields defined do not exceed the maximum allowed length.
  
  
  
  Adjust Key Fields:
  
  If possible, reduce the number of key fields or the length of the key fields in the structure to ensure that the total length does not exceed the allowed limit.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration:
  
  Review the configuration settings related to the object type and action mentioned in the error message. Ensure that they are set up correctly and that the key lengths are within the allowed limits.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific object type and action to understand the constraints and limitations regarding key lengths.
  
  
  
  Testing:
