  The SAP error message MS055 indicates that there is no assignment of a variant group to users that has been deleted. This typically occurs in the context of variant management in SAP, where users are assigned specific variants for reports or transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Deletion of Variant Group: The variant group that was previously assigned to users has been deleted.
  No Existing Assignments: There may not be any existing assignments of the variant group to users, leading to this error when trying to perform an operation related to that group.
