  Check the Status: Verify the current status of the design you are trying to delete. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction or using the appropriate report to view the design's details.
  Change the Status: If the design is not in the correct status, you will need to change its status to CUDC or DLT before attempting to delete it. This may involve:
  
  Editing the design to set it to CUDC.
  Marking it for deletion if it is currently in a status that allows for that.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to your organization's documentation or SAP help resources for specific instructions on how to change the status of designs in your system.
  Authorization: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to change the status of the design and to perform deletions.
