  The SAP error message SCRP_DYNPRO_UTIL_1017 typically indicates that a screen (dynpro) cannot be deleted due to certain constraints or dependencies. This error often arises in the context of screen modifications or deletions in the SAP GUI.
  Cause:
  
  Dependencies: The screen you are trying to delete may be linked to other objects, such as programs, function modules, or transactions. If there are dependencies, SAP will not allow the deletion to maintain data integrity.
  Transport Requests: If the screen is part of a transport request that has not been released or is currently in use, it cannot be deleted.
  Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations can also prevent the deletion of screens.
  Active Objects: If the screen is currently active or being used in a session, it cannot be deleted.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction SE80 (Object Navigator) or SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check if the screen is linked to any other objects. You may need to remove or modify these dependencies before attempting to delete the screen.
  Release Transport Requests: Ensure that any transport requests associated with the screen are released. You can check this in transaction SE09 or SE10.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete screens. You may need to consult with your SAP security team if you suspect authorization issues.
  Deactivate the Screen: If the screen is active, try to deactivate it first. You can do this by navigating to the screen in the screen painter and setting it to inactive.
