  Cause:
  This error indicates that the equipment you are trying to dismantle (Equipment &1) is not recognized as a sub-equipment of the parent equipment (Equipment &2). This can happen due to several reasons:
  
  Incorrect Hierarchy: The equipment you are trying to dismantle is not actually a sub-equipment of the specified parent equipment in the system.
  Data Entry Error: There may have been a mistake in entering the equipment numbers or in the configuration of the equipment hierarchy.
  Missing Relationships: The relationship between the parent and sub-equipment may not have been established correctly in the system.
  Status Issues: The equipment may be in a status that does not allow dismantling.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Equipment Hierarchy:
  
  Use transaction code IE03 (Display Equipment) to check the hierarchy of the equipment. Ensure that Equipment &1 is indeed a sub-equipment of Equipment &2.

  Correct Data Entry:
  
  Double-check the equipment numbers you are using in the dismantling process. Ensure that you are referencing the correct equipment.
