  The error occurs when:
  
  Missing Dimension Entries: The fact table contains entries that reference a dimension ID that does not exist in the corresponding dimension table.

  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to the dimension structure or the fact table, can lead to inconsistencies.
  Incorrect Data Source: The data source used for loading data may not be correctly configured, leading to missing dimension data.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the RSCV146 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Dimension Table: Verify that the dimension table contains all the necessary entries. You can do this by querying the dimension table to see if the missing IDs are present.

  Reprocess Data: If you find that the dimension entries are indeed missing, you may need to reprocess the data load for the dimension table to ensure that all relevant data is included.
  
  
  Data Source Configuration: Ensure that the data source for the dimension table is correctly configured and that it is pulling in all necessary data.
