This error typically arises in the context of SAP's transport management system or when working with customer-specific objects in the SAP system.
  Cause:

  Modify the Object: If renaming is not possible, you may need to modify the existing object directly instead of renaming it. This could involve changing its functionality or attributes without changing its name.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific object type you are working with. There may be specific guidelines or best practices for handling customer objects.
