  Cause:
  
  Invalid Reference: The XML data contains a reference (e.g., an ID) that does not exist in the target system or is not valid in the context of the import.
  Data Integrity Issues: The XML file may have been generated with incorrect or outdated data, leading to references that do not match the current state of the database.

  Check XML Data: Review the XML file to ensure that all references are valid and correspond to existing records in the SAP system. Look for any typos or incorrect IDs.

  Update Mapping: If there are changes in the data model or structure, update the mapping configuration to ensure that the XML fields correspond correctly to the SAP fields.
  Error Handling: Implement error handling in the import process to log invalid references and take corrective actions, such as notifying users or providing a report of issues.
