AY187 - Details

Error Code: AY187
Error Message: Asset & & belongs to an investment measure. Deletion not allowed.

Summary
This error occurs when you try to delete an asset that is linked to an investment measure in SAP. The system prevents deletion because assets assigned to investment measures are controlled objects and cannot be removed directly to maintain data integrity.

Root Causes
The asset master record is assigned to an investment measure (WBS element or internal order) in the Investment Management (IM) module.
System configuration restricts deletion of assets linked to investment measures to ensure proper tracking and reporting of investments.
User attempts to delete the asset without first removing or reassigning the investment measure linkage.
Incomplete or incorrect master data cleanup procedures when trying to remove assets related to capital projects.
