  Transport Issues: If the selection table was recently transported from another system, it may not have been transported correctly or may not exist in the target system.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the selection table.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model or master data that affect the selection table may lead to this error.
