This typically occurs when you are working with planning versions and trying to access or manipulate data that requires certain restrictions or descriptions that are not defined in the specified planning version.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Restriction Descriptions: The source planning version does not have any restriction descriptions defined. This could be due to a configuration oversight or because the planning version is not set up correctly.
  Incorrect Planning Version: You may be using a planning version that is not intended for the operation you are trying to perform.
