  The SAP error message /SCMB/PSTRU_MIGR020 POS &1 is active with DSO &2 storing its data typically occurs in the context of SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) when there is an issue related to the migration of data structures or when trying to deactivate or modify a particular data structure (POS - Product Structure) that is currently in use or active.
  Cause:
  
  Active Data Structure: The error indicates that the Product Structure (POS) identified by &1 is currently active and is linked to a DataStore Object (DSO) identified by &2. This means that the system is trying to perform an operation (like migration or deactivation) on a POS that is still in use.

  Solution:
  
  Check Active Status: Verify the status of the POS and DSO in question. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction codes in SAP (like /SCMB/PSTRU for Product Structures) and checking if the POS is indeed active.
  Deactivate POS: If you need to make changes, you may need to deactivate the POS. Ensure that no processes are currently using this POS. You can deactivate it through the appropriate transaction or program.
  Data Migration: If you are trying to migrate data, ensure that the POS is not in use. You may need to wait until all processes using the POS are completed before attempting the migration again.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to the specific version of SCM you are using for any additional steps or considerations.
