This error typically arises in scenarios where a project has been created with purchasing items, and those items have not been fully processed or cleared.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that there are still active purchasing items linked to the project you are attempting to reject. The system prevents the rejection of the project to maintain data integrity and ensure that all associated purchasing activities are properly handled.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Purchasing Items: 
  
  Navigate to the project in question and review the associated purchasing items. You can do this by accessing the project details and looking for any linked purchase requisitions, purchase orders, or other purchasing documents.
  
  
  
  Process or Delete Purchasing Items:
  
  If there are purchasing items that are still open or not fully processed, you will need to either complete them (e.g., by receiving goods or services) or delete them if they are no longer needed.
  If you decide to delete the purchasing items, ensure that you have the necessary authorizations and that it is appropriate to do so.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no dependencies or linked documents that might be preventing the rejection of the project. This includes checking for any approvals or workflows that might be in progress.
  
  
  
  Consult with Stakeholders:
  
  If you are unsure about the purchasing items or their status, consult with relevant stakeholders (e.g., purchasing department, project manager) to understand the implications of rejecting the project.
  
  
  
  Retry Rejection:
  
  Once all purchasing items are either processed or deleted, attempt to reject the project again.
