  Causes:
  
  Dependencies: The view may be referenced by other database objects such as tables, other views, or stored procedures. If there are dependencies, the system will not allow the deletion.
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to delete the view may not have the necessary permissions to perform the deletion.
  Database Locks: The view might be locked by another transaction or user, preventing its deletion.
  Technical Issues: There could be underlying technical issues with the database or the SAP system itself.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Dependencies:

  Release Locks:

  Database Consistency Check:
  
  If the issue persists, consider running a database consistency check or consult your database administrator to ensure that there are no underlying issues with the database.
  
  
  
  Use Transaction SE14:
