• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CO623 - Superior order & is deleted ?

  The SAP error message CO623 indicates that a superior order (parent order) has been deleted, which affects the processing of the subordinate order (child order). This error typically arises in the context of production orders, where a child order is linked to a parent order, and the parent order has been removed from the system.
  Cause:
  
  
  Deletion of Parent Order: The primary cause of this error is that the superior (parent) order has been deleted from the system. This can happen due to various reasons, such as:
  
  Manual deletion by a user.
  Deletion as part of a mass deletion process.
  Deletion due to a change in production planning or scheduling.
  
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: If there are inconsistencies in the order management data, it can lead to this error. For example, if the child order is still active but the parent order has been removed, the system will throw this error.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Parent Order Status: Verify if the parent order still exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes like CO03 (Display Production Order) to check the status of the parent order.
  
  
  Recreate Parent Order: If the parent order was deleted and is still needed, you may need to recreate it. This can involve:
  
  Creating a new production order that mirrors the original parent order.
  Re-linking the child orders to the new parent order if necessary.
  
  
  
  Adjust Child Orders: If the parent order is no longer needed, you may need to adjust or delete the child orders that are linked to the deleted parent order. This can be done through transaction codes like CO02 (Change Production Order) or CO04 (Delete Production Order).
  
  
  Consult with SAP Support: If the issue persists or if you are unsure about the steps to take, it may be beneficial to consult with your SAP support team or refer to SAP Notes for specific guidance related to your version of SAP.
