  The SAP error message /S4PPM/MIGR_DPR314 Parent &1 has no GUID (record missing in /S4PPM/TASK) typically occurs during data migration or when working with project management data in SAP S/4HANA. This error indicates that the system is trying to reference a parent record (identified by &1) in the /S4PPM/TASK table, but it cannot find the corresponding GUID (Globally Unique Identifier) for that record. This usually means that the parent record is either missing or not properly created in the system.

  Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the data where the child task is linked to a parent that has not been created or has been deleted.
  Incorrect Configuration: Configuration settings in the project management module may not be set up correctly, leading to issues in task hierarchy.

  Check Parent Record: Verify if the parent record (task or project) exists in the /S4PPM/TASK table. You can do this by executing a query or using transaction codes like SE16N to view the table contents.
