• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message AAPO128 - Asset &1 is marked for deletion, transaction not allowed ?

  The SAP error message AAPO128 indicates that an asset is marked for deletion, which prevents any further transactions from being processed for that asset. This is a common issue in asset accounting when an asset is flagged for deletion but still has pending transactions or is being referenced in some way.
  Cause:
  
  Asset Marked for Deletion: The primary cause of this error is that the asset in question has been marked for deletion in the system. This typically happens when an asset is no longer in use or is being retired.
  Pending Transactions: There may be pending transactions that are trying to be processed against the asset, which is not allowed once it is marked for deletion.
  Incorrect Configuration: Sometimes, the asset may be incorrectly configured or there may be a misunderstanding of the asset's status.

  Consult Documentation: If you are unsure about the implications of removing the deletion flag, consult your organization's asset accounting policies or SAP documentation.
