• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message DPR_SHARED060 - The status of &1 &2 does not permit you to delete ?

  The SAP error message DPR_SHARED060 indicates that you are trying to delete a project or a project-related object (like a task or a milestone) that is in a status that does not allow deletion. This is a common issue in SAP Project Management (DPR - Dynamic Project Management) when the object is either completed, released, or in a status that is not permissible for deletion.
  Cause:
  The error occurs due to the following reasons:
  
  Status Restrictions: The project or object you are trying to delete has a status that prohibits deletion. For example, if the project is marked as "Completed" or "Released," it cannot be deleted.
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies or relationships with other objects that prevent deletion.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the object in its current status.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status: Review the status of the project or object you are trying to delete. You can do this by navigating to the project in the SAP GUI and checking its status in the project details.
  
  
  Change the Status: If the status is preventing deletion, you may need to change it to a status that allows deletion. This could involve:
  
  Reversing the completion of the project (if applicable).
  Changing the project status to "In Progress" or another status that allows deletion.
  
  
  
  Delete Dependencies: If there are dependent objects (like tasks or milestones), you may need to delete or change their statuses first before you can delete the main project.
  
  
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete the project. If you do not have the required permissions, contact your SAP administrator to grant you the necessary access.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Refer to the SAP documentation or help files for specific details on project statuses and their implications for deletion.
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like CJ20N (Project Builder) or CJ02 (Change Project) to view and modify project details.
