• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message ADW323 - No rows could be deleted ?

  The SAP error message ADW323, which states "No rows could be deleted," typically occurs when an attempt is made to delete data from a database table, but the specified rows do not exist or cannot be deleted due to certain constraints or conditions. Here are some common causes, potential solutions, and related information for this error:
  Causes:
  
  Non-Existent Rows: The rows you are trying to delete do not exist in the database table.
  Foreign Key Constraints: There may be foreign key constraints that prevent the deletion of the rows because they are referenced by other tables.
  Authorization Issues: The user executing the delete operation may not have the necessary permissions to delete the rows.
  Logical Deletion: The system may be set up to perform logical deletions (e.g., marking a record as inactive) instead of physical deletions.
  Data Locking: The rows may be locked by another transaction, preventing deletion.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Verify Row Existence: Check if the rows you are trying to delete actually exist in the table. You can run a SELECT query to confirm their presence.
  Check Constraints: Review the database schema for any foreign key constraints that might be preventing the deletion. You may need to delete dependent records first.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to perform delete operations on the relevant tables.
  Use Logical Deletion: If the system is designed for logical deletion, consider using the appropriate method to mark the records as inactive instead of deleting them.
  Check for Locks: Investigate if there are any locks on the rows you are trying to delete. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to check for locks.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE11 (Data Dictionary), SE16 (Data Browser), and SM12 (Lock Entries) to help diagnose the issue.
  Database Logs: Check database logs for any additional error messages or information that might provide insight into why the deletion failed.
