  The SAP error message R7247 indicates that a navigation attribute for a characteristic has been deleted because it no longer has any associated attributes. This typically occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP HANA when working with InfoObjects and their attributes.
  
  Cause:
  
  Deleted Attributes: The navigation attribute specified in the error message has been deleted or is no longer valid. This can happen if the underlying attribute of the characteristic has been removed or if the InfoObject has been modified.
  Data Model Changes: Changes in the data model, such as modifications to InfoObjects or InfoProviders, can lead to inconsistencies where navigation attributes are no longer linked to valid attributes.
  Transport Issues: If changes were transported from one system to another (e.g., from development to production), and the transport did not include all necessary objects, it could lead to this error.
  
  
  Solution:
