  Cause:
  The error message BW_BICS_EQ007 indicates that there are unresolved dependencies for the Easy Query you are trying to work with. This can happen due to several reasons, including:
  
  Missing or Inactive InfoObjects: The InfoObjects that the Easy Query depends on may be missing or inactive.
  Changes in Data Model: If there have been changes in the underlying data model (like InfoProviders, InfoObjects, etc.), it can lead to inconsistencies.
