• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BCOM_EC_R117 - Not all specified entries could be deleted ?

  The SAP error message BCOM_EC_R117 ("Not all specified entries could be deleted") typically occurs in the context of the Business Communication Management (BCM) module or related areas where you are trying to delete certain entries, such as communication records, configurations, or other related data.
  Cause:
  
  Dependencies: The entries you are trying to delete may have dependencies or relationships with other records. For example, if a communication record is linked to a business partner or a transaction, it cannot be deleted until those dependencies are resolved.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete certain entries. This can be due to role restrictions or missing permissions.
  Data Integrity Constraints: There may be data integrity constraints in place that prevent the deletion of certain records to maintain the integrity of the database.
  System Locking: The entries might be locked by another process or user, preventing deletion.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Review the entries you are trying to delete and check for any dependencies. You may need to delete or modify related records first.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that the user attempting the deletion has the necessary authorizations. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify and adjust roles and permissions.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes (like SE11 for data dictionary, SE16 for table display) to investigate the records and their relationships.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the entries you are trying to delete. If there are locks, you may need to wait for them to be released or contact the user who has locked the record.
  Consult Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages that might provide additional context on why the deletion failed.
  Data Cleanup: If the entries are part of a larger data cleanup process, ensure that all related data is handled appropriately before attempting to delete.
