  SAP Error Message:
  WES_FILTER001: Application of simple filter &2 on filter object &1 terminated
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs when a simple filter applied on a filter object in SAP's Web Channel or Web UI framework cannot be processed or applied correctly. The filter object (&1) and the filter value (&2) are placeholders for the actual filter name and value.
  Common causes include:
  
  Invalid filter value: The filter value (&2) does not match the expected format or allowed values for the filter object (&1).
  Filter object not found or incorrectly defined: The filter object (&1) might not exist or is not properly configured in the filter framework.
  Data inconsistency: The underlying data or metadata related to the filter object is inconsistent or missing.
  Authorization issues: The user might not have the necessary permissions to apply the filter.
