What is "get_descendants_of"? How can i solve this?

Welcome!

Some ideas and suggestions -

For search purposes please post your full traceback as text not a screenshot

For q&a pointer clues search the forum for ‘ImportError: Module import failed for’

If you have server access, search the code for say ‘get_descendants_of’

I have got this error on several doctype don’t know how can I solve this.

can you post your erpnext and frappe versions ? click on the about button in Help menu on desk

Maybe a circular reference or import case as nabin notes

Too bad I am not informed how to analyse and resolve this - IMHO one misfortune of untyped languages like Python!

"erpnext": "11.1.21",
"frappe": "11.1.3"

What particular DocType contexts are you using where these exceptions occur? Perhaps attach a screenshot and give what steps to replicate these.

That method send seems only to be referenced in Accounts validation:
