    1. Screen Not Defined: The screen you are trying to access has not been created or defined in the program.
    2. Incorrect Program Name: The program name specified may be incorrect, leading to the system looking for a screen in the wrong program.
    3. Transport Issues: If the program and screen were transported from another system, there may have been issues during the transport process, leading to missing objects.
    4. Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to access the screen, which can sometimes lead to misleading error messages.

    1. Check Screen Definition: Verify that the screen number (e.g., &1) exists in the program (e.g., &2). You can do this by going to the screen painter (SE80 or SE38) and checking the program for the specified screen.
    2. Correct Program Name: Ensure that the program name is correct and that you are calling the right program.
    3. Transport Check: If the program and screen were transported, check the transport logs for any errors. You may need to re-transport the objects.
