  SAP Error Message:
  WRF_PRC_BAS008: Subtree does not contain data. Worklist was adjusted accordingly.
  
  
  Cause:
  This message typically occurs in SAP Workflow or Business Process Management scenarios where a workflow or worklist is expected to display tasks or items based on a certain data subtree (a hierarchical structure of data). The error indicates that the expected subtree (data structure or node) does not contain any data, meaning no relevant workflow tasks or items were found for the user or process.
  Common causes include:
  
  The workflow or process instance does not have any tasks assigned or created yet.
  The data selection criteria or filters applied to the worklist are too restrictive or incorrect, resulting in no data.
  The underlying data source or table that the subtree references is empty or not populated.
  Authorization issues where the user does not have access to the data, so the subtree appears empty.
  Configuration or customization
