  The SAP error message SOBL_MESSAGE106 indicates that a class (denoted as &1 in the message) is actively available in the system and is currently in use. This typically occurs when you attempt to delete or modify a class that is still being referenced or utilized in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Active Usage: The class you are trying to delete or modify is currently being used in one or more programs, function modules, or other classes.
