  Review Object Types: Ensure that the object type of the include matches what is expected in the context where it is being used. If it is supposed to be a table, make sure it is defined as such.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user executing the report or data extraction has the necessary authorizations to access the include and related objects.
