What causes this issue?

When deleting origin assignments to investment profiles and origin
structures, the system determined that this deletion would cause an
inconsistent dataset. This problem can have various causes.

the investment profiles and the origin structures, for assets under
construction for capital investment measures. Therefore they cannot
be deleted.
