System Response

Depending on the add-on you want to uninstall, a corresponding veto
check is performed using the following classes:
CL_CTE_FGM_DEINSTALL_ADD_ON
CL_CTE_FIN_DEINSTALL_CHECK
CL_CTE_FND_DEINSTALL_ADD_ON
CL_CTE_HCM_DEINSTALL_ADD_ON
CL_CTE_INV_DEINSTALL_ADD_ON
The class(es) check whether Concur documents exist that have not been
confirmed yet in which case the documents weren't posted at all or the
actual confirmation of a posted document (successfully or failed) has
not been sent. As a consequence, the feedback loop is not completed
which causes the deinstallation to fail.

filter for all documents without a confirmation and send the
confirmation manually for every document.
