  The SAP error message /CFG/EXP129 Object instance of ID &1 and Type &2 does not exist typically indicates that the system is trying to access a configuration object that cannot be found. This can occur in various contexts, such as when working with configuration settings, customizing, or during runtime when the system expects a certain object to be present.

  Missing Configuration Object: The object with the specified ID and type has not been created or has been deleted.
  Incorrect Object ID or Type: There may be a typo or incorrect reference in the configuration or code that is trying to access the object.
  Transport Issues: If the object was recently transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), it may not have been included in the transport request.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to view or access the object.
  System Inconsistencies: There may be inconsistencies in the system due to incomplete configuration or data migration issues.

  Recreate the Object: If the object is missing, you may need to recreate it. This could involve creating a new configuration object or restoring it from a backup if it was deleted.
