  Cause:
  
  Fulfilled Quantities: The error arises when there are still quantities that have been fulfilled against the Purchase Order. This means that some goods or services have been received or invoiced, and the system does not allow deletion to maintain data integrity.
  Open Transactions: There may be open transactions related to the Purchase Order, such as goods receipts, invoices, or asset postings that have not been fully processed or cleared.
  Dependencies: The Purchase Order may be linked to other documents or processes that prevent its deletion.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Fulfilled Quantities:
  
  Go to the Purchase Order in question and check the status of the fulfilled quantities. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., ME23N for display).
  Review the goods receipts and invoices associated with the Purchase Order.
  
  
  
  Clear Open Transactions:
  
  If there are open goods receipts or invoices, you may need to reverse or clear them before attempting to delete the Purchase Order.
  Use transaction codes like MIGO (for goods movements) or MIRO (for invoice verification) to manage these transactions.
  
  
  
  Adjust Asset Accounting Entries:
  
  If the Purchase Order is linked to asset accounting, ensure that all asset postings are cleared or reversed.

  Consult with Your Team:

  You can use transaction codes like ME22N to change the Purchase Order or ME23N to display it and check for any related documents.
  
  
  
  System Configuration:
  
  In some cases, system configuration or settings may prevent deletion. Consult with your SAP Basis or configuration team if you suspect this is the case.
