  The SAP error message /SMB/CUS_SCOPE_MSG007 indicates that a specific scope item (identified by &1) is still assigned to one or more scope bundles, which prevents it from being deleted. This is a common issue when working with scope items and bundles in SAP, particularly in the context of SAP S/4HANA Cloud or SAP Business Technology Platform.
  Cause:

  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Scope Bundles: 
  
  Use the SAP Fiori Launchpad or the relevant transaction code to navigate to the scope management area.

  Edit the scope bundles and remove the scope item from them. This may involve unchecking the item or deleting it from the bundle configuration.
  
  
  
  Delete the Scope Item:
  
  Once the scope item is no longer assigned to any scope bundles, you should be able to delete it without encountering the error.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no other dependencies or references to the scope item in other configurations or settings.
