This error indicates that the system requires a default activity to be assigned to an approver in a specific quality-related process, such as a quality notification or inspection lot.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Configuration: The error often arises when the system is not configured with a default activity for the approver role in the relevant quality management process.
  Workflow Settings: If the workflow settings for the approval process are incomplete or not properly defined, it can lead to this error.
  User Role Assignment: The user attempting to perform the action may not have the necessary roles or authorizations assigned to them, which can prevent the selection of a default activity.

  Check Configuration:
  
  Navigate to the relevant configuration settings in SAP for Quality Management.
