The error message states: "No field type with fieldname &1 defined for model type &2." This typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when working with data models and field mappings.
  Cause:
  
  
  Field Definition Missing: The field name specified in the error message (&1) is not defined in the data model for the specified model type (&2). This could happen if:
  
  The field was deleted or not created in the data model.
  There is a mismatch between the field names in the data model and the ones being referenced in the configuration or data processing.
  The model type being used does not support the specified field.
  
  
  
  Configuration Issues: There may be issues in the configuration of the data model or the mapping of fields, leading to the system not recognizing the field.
  
  
  Transport Issues: If the data model was transported from one system to another, there may have been issues during the transport that led to missing definitions.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Field Definitions:

  Transport Check:
  
  If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were transported correctly. You may need to re-transport the data model or related objects.
