  The SAP error message CI_DRAFTPRD_MESSAGE459 typically indicates that there is an issue related to configurable products and their dependencies in the SAP system. This error occurs when a product dependency for a configurable product has been deleted, which can lead to inconsistencies in the product configuration.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted Dependencies: The most common cause of this error is that a dependency (such as a characteristic or a value assignment) that was previously associated with the configurable product has been deleted.
  Data Inconsistency: There may be inconsistencies in the master data, especially if changes were made to the product configuration without properly updating all related dependencies.

  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Review the configurable product's dependencies in the SAP system. Ensure that all necessary dependencies are still present and correctly configured.
  Recreate Deleted Dependencies: If you identify that a dependency has been deleted, you may need to recreate it. This can involve re-adding characteristics or values that were removed.
  Data Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the product configuration to identify any other potential issues. This can often be done using transaction codes like CU50 (Configuration Profile) or CU60 (Configuration Simulation).
  Transport Review: If the issue arose after a transport, review the transport logs to ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or notes related to configurable products and dependencies for any specific guidance or known issues.
