  The SAP error message 67288, which states "Object cannot be deleted, select 'Exit assignment'," typically occurs when you attempt to delete an object (such as a project, task, or other entity) that is currently assigned to another object or is in use. This is a common issue in SAP systems, particularly in modules like Project System (PS) or Controlling (CO).

  Change Status: If the object is in a status that prevents deletion, consider changing its status to a more permissive one (if applicable).
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help files for specific instructions related to the object type you are dealing with.
  Use Transaction Codes: Use relevant transaction codes (like CJ20N for Project Management) to navigate to the object and check its details.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete the object. Sometimes, lack of permissions can lead to such errors.
