  The SAP error message S_CUS_IMG_ACTIVITY160 indicates that there is an issue related to the use of Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets) in the SAP system. This error typically arises when you are trying to access or modify a view or table that is not allowed for BC Sets, or when the system configuration does not permit certain activities related to BC Sets.
  Cause:
  
  Access Restrictions: The view or table you are trying to access is explicitly restricted for use with BC Sets. This means that the system is configured to prevent changes to certain objects through BC Sets.

  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform the action. You may need to check the user's roles and authorizations in the system.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to BC Sets and the specific view or table you are working with. There may be specific guidelines or restrictions documented by SAP.
