CS056 - Details

  • The SAP error message CS056, which states "You cannot delete within SAP name range," typically occurs when you attempt to delete an object (like a material, BOM, or routing) that is part of a reserved name range in SAP. This reserved name range is used to protect certain system objects from being deleted, ensuring data integrity and system stability.
    
    Cause: Reserved Name Range: The object you are trying to delete falls within a reserved name range that SAP uses for its internal processes or standard objects. Dependencies: The object may have dependencies or relationships with other objects that prevent its deletion. Authorization Issues: You may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the object, even if it is not in a reserved range.
    Solution: Check Object Type: Verify the type of object you are trying to delete and ensure it is not part of a reserved name range. You can refer to SAP documentation or consult
