This inconsistency can arise from various issues, such as changes in the underlying data model, missing objects, or issues with the query definition itself.
  Causes:
  
  Changes in Data Model: If the underlying InfoProvider or data model has been changed (e.g., fields added or removed), it can lead to inconsistencies in the query view.
