• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DO934 - Structured object & is still referenced ?

  The SAP error message DO934 indicates that a structured object (such as a document, report, or other data structure) is still being referenced in the system, which prevents it from being deleted or modified. This typically occurs when there are dependencies or links to the structured object that need to be resolved before the object can be changed or removed.
  Cause:
  
  Active References: The structured object is still being used or referenced by other objects or processes in the system.
  Incomplete Deletion: There may be incomplete transactions or processes that are still holding references to the object.
  Data Integrity Constraints: SAP enforces data integrity, and if there are constraints that prevent the deletion of the object, this error will occur.
  
  Solution:
  
  Identify References: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to check for any references to the structured object. You can also use the "Where-Used List" feature to find out where the object is being referenced.
  Remove Dependencies: Once you identify the references, you will need to either delete or modify the dependent objects or processes that are holding references to the structured object.
  Check for Open Transactions: Ensure that there are no open transactions or processes that are using the structured object. You may need to complete or cancel these transactions.
  Consult Documentation: Review any relevant documentation or notes related to the structured object to understand its dependencies better.
  Use Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like SM12 (to check for locks) or SM21 (to check system logs) to identify any issues that might be causing the reference to persist.
  Contact Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
