  Cause:
  The error is caused by the absence of the required UNLOCODE location codes in the Customizing settings of your SAP system. UNLOCODE (United Nations Code for Trade and Transport Locations) is a standard for identifying locations such as ports, airports, and other transport-related locations. If the system cannot find the specified UNLOCODEs, it will trigger this error.
  Solution:

  Check UNLOCODE Configuration:
  
  Go to the SAP Customizing Implementation Guide (IMG) by using transaction code SPRO.

  Verify Data Upload:
  
  If you are uploading data (e.g., via a file or interface), ensure that the data being uploaded contains valid UNLOCODEs that match those defined in the system.
  
  
  
  Check for Typos:
  
  Double-check for any typographical errors in the UNLOCODEs being used in your upload or configuration.
  
  
  
  Transport Requests:
