• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CV153 - Error during delete: of & records, & records were updated ?

  The SAP error message CV153 typically indicates an issue encountered during a deletion process in the SAP system. The message states that while attempting to delete a certain number of records, some of those records were updated, which prevents the deletion from being completed successfully.
  Cause:
  
  Data Integrity Issues: The records you are trying to delete may have dependencies or relationships with other records in the database. If any of these records have been updated or are currently being used by another process, the system will not allow the deletion.
  Locking Issues: If the records are locked by another user or process, the deletion cannot proceed.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary permissions to delete the records.
  Business Logic: There may be business rules or validations in place that prevent the deletion of certain records.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for any locks on the records you are trying to delete. If there are locks, you may need to wait for the other processes to complete or contact the user who has locked the records.
  Review Dependencies: Investigate if the records have dependencies with other records. You may need to delete or update those dependent records first.
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user attempting the deletion has the necessary authorizations to perform the action. You can check this with transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  Review Business Rules: Check if there are any business rules or validations that are preventing the deletion. This may require consulting with a functional consultant or reviewing the configuration.
  Use Transaction Logs: If available, check transaction logs to see what updates were made to the records before the deletion attempt. This can provide insight into why the deletion failed.
