This error can occur in various contexts, such as when working with master data, customizing, or during data migration processes.

  Check Dependencies: Investigate if the value you are trying to delete is being referenced elsewhere. You can use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check the table structure and relationships.
  Review Usage: Look for any transactions or processes that might be using the value. This can include reports, programs, or other data entries.
