  The SAP error message /SAPQUERY/BC_GLOBAL104 Table entry does not exist typically indicates that the system is trying to access a table entry that is not available in the database. This error can occur in various contexts, often related to queries or reports that rely on specific data entries.
  Causes:
  
  Missing Data: The most common cause is that the data entry the query is trying to access has not been created or has been deleted.
  Incorrect Configuration: The configuration settings for the query or report may be incorrect, leading to an attempt to access a non-existent entry.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view the data, which can sometimes lead to similar error messages.
  Transport Issues: If the query or report was transported from one system to another, there may be missing dependencies or data that were not transported correctly.
  Database Issues: There could be issues with the database itself, such as corruption or inconsistencies.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Data Existence: Verify that the data entry the query is trying to access actually exists in the relevant table. You can do this by using transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE16 (Data Browser) to check the table directly.

  User Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the data. You can check this using transaction SU53 to see if there are any authorization failures.
  Transport Check: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs and ensure that all necessary objects and data were included in the transport.
  Database Consistency: If you suspect database issues, you may need to run consistency checks or consult with your database administrator to ensure that the database is functioning correctly.
