  Object &1 &2 is used by object &3 &4
  Where:
  
  &1 &2 refers to the object you are trying to modify or delete.

  Cause
  This error usually occurs in the context of SAP BW (Business Warehouse) or SAP BI (Business Intelligence) when:
  
  You are trying to delete or modify an object that is still being referenced by another object.
  The object could be a query, InfoProvider, or any other BW object that has dependencies.
  
  Solution
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify Dependencies:
  
  Use transaction codes like RSO1 (for InfoProviders) or RSRT (for queries) to check the dependencies of the object you are trying to modify or delete.
  You can also use the RSOBJV transaction to analyze the object dependencies.
  
  
  
  Remove References:
  
  Once you identify which object is referencing the one you want to delete, you will need to either delete or modify the referencing object to remove the dependency.
  For example, if a query is using a particular InfoProvider, you may need to delete or modify the query first.
  
  
  
  Check for Active Objects:
  
  Ensure that there are no active processes or jobs that are using the object. You can check the process chains or any scheduled jobs that might be referencing the object.
  
  
  
  Re-attempt the Action:
  
  After removing the dependencies, try to perform the action (delete or modify) on the original object again.
  
  
  
  Consult Documentation:
  
  If you are unsure about the dependencies or how to proceed, consult the SAP documentation or reach out to your SAP Basis or BW team for assistance.
