  The SAP error message USMD_CR005 indicates that a specific object (in this case, a data model or a related entity) is blocked by a change request. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Master Data Governance (MDG) when you are trying to make changes to a data model that is currently locked due to an ongoing change request.
  Cause:
  The error message USMD_CR005 is triggered when:
  
  A change request is currently active and has locked the object you are trying to modify.
  The object is being edited or processed in another session or by another user.
  There may be a pending approval or workflow that is preventing changes to the object.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Active Change Requests:
  
  Go to the change request management area in SAP MDG and check if there are any active change requests that are locking the object.
  You can use transaction codes like MDG_CRM or MDG_MAINT to view and manage change requests.
  
  
  
  Release or Complete the Change Request:
  
  If you have the necessary permissions, you can either complete or release the change request that is blocking the object.
  Ensure that all necessary approvals are obtained if the change request is in a workflow.
  
  
  
  Consult with Colleagues:
  
  If you are not the one who initiated the change request, consult with your colleagues or the person responsible for the change request to understand the status and whether it can be released.
  
  
  
  Check for Locks:
  
  Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the object. If you find a lock that is no longer needed, you can remove it (ensure you have the appropriate authorization to do so).
  
  
  
  Wait for Completion:
  
  If the change request is being processed by another user, you may need to wait until they complete their changes.
  
  
  
  Contact SAP Support:
