  The SAP error message APS_CCV_CHECK015 indicates that a custom Core Data Services (CDS) view is still in use by other objects, such as other CDS views, analytical queries, or other dependent objects. This error typically arises when you attempt to delete or modify a CDS view that is still being referenced elsewhere in the system.
  Cause:
  
  
  Dependencies: The CDS view you are trying to modify or delete has dependencies on other objects. This could include:
  
  Other CDS views that reference it.
  Analytical queries or reports that utilize the CDS view.
  Other database objects or applications that rely on the data provided by the CDS view.
  
  
  
  Active Usage: The CDS view is actively being used in some context, which prevents changes or deletion.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Dependencies:
  
  Use the SAP transaction code SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to check the dependencies of the CDS view.
  In SE11, enter the name of the CDS view and click on the "Where-Used List" to see where it is being referenced.
  
  
  
  Remove Dependencies:
  
  If you find that other objects are using the CDS view, you will need to either:
  
  Modify those objects to remove the dependency on the CDS view.
  Delete or deactivate those objects if they are no longer needed.
  
  
  
  
  
  Check for Active Queries:
  
  Ensure that there are no active queries or reports that are currently using the CDS view. If there are, you may need to deactivate or adjust them.
  
  
  
  Re-attempt Modification/Deletion:
  
  Once you have removed or adjusted the dependencies, you can try to modify or delete the CDS view again.
  
  
  
  Transport Considerations:
  
  If you are working in a transport environment, ensure that any changes are properly transported and that the target system does not have dependencies that could cause issues.
