  The SAP error message EEDM_CALC_INST107 indicates that a calculation run is currently active or scheduled, and therefore, you cannot make changes to it. This error typically occurs in the context of SAP's Data Management or Data Warehousing modules, where calculations or data processing jobs are being executed.
  Cause:
  
  Active Job: The calculation run you are trying to modify is currently in progress.

  If the job is running, you may need to wait until it completes.
