  Cause:
  This error typically occurs during the processing of allocation tables in SAP, especially in modules like SAP Treasury and Risk Management (TRM) or Funds Management (FM), where allocation tables are used to distribute costs, revenues, or other values.
  The message indicates that the system encountered an issue while trying to read the item data from the specified allocation table (the placeholder &1 is replaced by the actual allocation table name or number at runtime).
  Common causes include:
