  Profile Deletion: The most common cause is that the profile specified in the error message has been deleted from the system, either manually or through a system cleanup process.
  Incorrect Profile Reference: The system may be referencing an incorrect or outdated profile name or version.

  Check Profile Existence: Verify if the profile mentioned in the error message still exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., PFCG for role maintenance) and checking the profiles.
  Recreate the Profile: If the profile has been deleted and is necessary for your operations, you may need to recreate it. This can involve copying an existing profile or creating a new one from scratch.
  Update References: If the profile has been renamed or replaced, ensure that all references to the old profile are updated to point to the new one.
  Check Transport Requests: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that the profile was included and correctly transported.
  Consult Documentation: Review any documentation or change logs to understand why the profile was deleted and whether it was intentional.
