This can happen for several reasons, and understanding the cause is essential for resolving the issue.
  Causes:
  
  Missing or Incorrect Configuration: The configuration model may not have been set up correctly, or the necessary characteristics and values may not be defined.
  Inconsistent Data: There may be inconsistencies in the master data, such as missing dependencies or incorrect relationships between characteristics and values.
