• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MDG_BS_CC001 - Change request &1 still exists; severing not allowed ?

  The SAP error message MDG_BS_CC001 indicates that a change request (CR) is still active or exists in the system, and therefore, the action you are trying to perform (such as severing a relationship or deleting an object) is not allowed. This is a common issue in SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when dealing with change requests.
  
  Cause:
  
  Active Change Request: The primary cause of this error is that there is an active change request associated with the object you are trying to modify or delete. The system prevents severing or deleting objects that are linked to ongoing change requests to maintain data integrity.
  Pending Approvals: The change request may be pending approval or still in process, which means it cannot be severed until it is completed or rejected.
  Incorrect Status: The object may be in a status that does not allow for severing or deletion.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Active Change Requests: 
  
  Use transaction code MDG_CRP or MDG_MAINT
