  The SAP error message /INCMD/MSG282 Cannot remove indicator; group is part of LDAP &1 typically indicates that there is an attempt to remove an indicator (such as a user group or role) that is linked to an LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) directory service. This means that the group you are trying to modify or delete is currently being used or referenced in the LDAP system, which prevents the action from being completed.
  Cause:

  Permissions: The user attempting to remove the indicator may not have the necessary permissions to perform this action.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check LDAP Configuration: Review the LDAP configuration in your SAP system to identify any dependencies or references to the group you are trying to remove.
  Remove Dependencies: If the group is being used in LDAP, you may need to remove or modify those dependencies before you can delete the group or indicator.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or your organization's LDAP integration guidelines to understand how to properly manage groups and indicators in relation to LDAP.
  Permissions Review: Ensure that you have the necessary permissions to make changes to the group. If not, contact your system administrator for assistance.
  Use Transaction Codes: If applicable, use relevant transaction codes (like SU01 for user management or PFCG for role management) to check the group’s assignments and dependencies.
