This typically occurs when you are trying to access archived data or perform operations related to the archiving process, but the system cannot find any archiving runs associated with the specified object.

    Cause:

    1. No Archiving Runs Created: The most common cause is that no archiving runs have been executed for the archiving object SN_META. This means that the data has not been archived yet.
    2. Incorrect Archiving Object: You might be trying to access an archiving object that is not relevant or has not been set up correctly in the system.
    3. Authorization Issues: There may be authorization issues preventing you from viewing the archiving runs.
    4. Configuration Issues: The archiving object may not be properly configured in the system.

    Solution:

    1. Create an Archiving Run:
