  The SAP error message CU131: "End the dependency session first" typically occurs in the context of working with variant configuration in SAP. This error indicates that there is an active dependency session that needs to be closed before you can proceed with the action you are trying to perform.
  Cause:
  The error is caused by one of the following situations:
  
  Active Dependency Session: You are trying to execute an action (like saving or changing a configuration) while there is an open dependency session. This session is usually created when you are working with configurable materials and their dependencies (like constraints, rules, etc.).
  Unfinished Configuration: You may have started a configuration session but did not complete or end it properly.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the CU131 error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  End the Dependency Session:
  
  If you are in a configuration session, look for an option to end or cancel the session. This is usually done by navigating to the menu and selecting the option to end the session.
  You can also try to exit the configuration screen or transaction you are in, which should prompt you to end the session.
  
  
  
  Check for Open Sessions:
  
  If you are unsure whether there are open sessions, you can check the transaction CU50 (Configuration Profile) or CU01 (Create Configuration Profile) to see if there are any active sessions.
  You can also use transaction SM04 to check for user sessions and see if there are any lingering sessions that need to be closed.
  
  
  
  Log Off and Log Back In:
  
  If you are unable to find and end the session, logging off from SAP and logging back in can sometimes clear any stuck sessions.
