This typically occurs in the context of financial transactions or treasury management within SAP, particularly when dealing with limits set for financial instruments or transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Active Margin Statement: The limit amount you are trying to delete is referenced in an active margin statement. This means that the system has recorded transactions or calculations that rely on this limit.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to prevent the deletion of data that is still in use, which is why you are encountering this error.
  
  Solution:

  Delete or Adjust Margin Statements:

  Consult with Stakeholders:
  
  If you are unsure about the implications of deleting or adjusting the limit, consult with your finance or treasury team to ensure that you are not disrupting any critical processes.
