The error message "User Authentication Failed, Reason: No user account found in the system (3)" typically occurs under the following circumstances:
- The user is trying to log in using Single Sign-On (SSO), but the authentication process fails because the user's account cannot be located within the system.
- The user's account does not exist in the system's database, which could be due to the account not being created or having been deleted.
- The system is configured to automatically create user accounts upon SSO login, but this feature is not enabled, leading to a failure in creating an account for the user.
