  The SAP error message ESH_OM_OBJ_MODEL_RP2544, which states "Renaming not possible because of GTABKEY registration," typically occurs in the context of the SAP Enterprise Search or the SAP NetWeaver system when there is an attempt to rename an object that is currently registered in a GTABKEY (Global Table Key) context. This can happen when the object is being used in a way that prevents it from being renamed, often due to dependencies or existing registrations.
  Cause:
  
  Object Registration: The object you are trying to rename is registered in a GTABKEY, which is a global key used for identifying objects in the system.
  Dependencies: There may be other objects or processes that depend on the object you are trying to rename, making it impossible to change its name without affecting those dependencies.
  System Lock: The object might be locked by another process or user, preventing any modifications.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Registration: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to check if the object is registered in a GTABKEY. You may need to identify where it is being used.
  Remove Dependencies: If possible, remove any dependencies or references to the object that prevent renaming. This may involve updating other objects or configurations that reference the object.
  Unlock Object: If the object is locked, you may need to unlock it. You can check for locks using transaction SM12 and remove any unnecessary locks.
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific object type you are working with to understand any specific requirements or restrictions regarding renaming.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists and you cannot identify the cause, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance. They may provide insights specific to your system configuration.
