  The SAP error message FM_MEASURE104, which states "Deletion not allowed for funded program category &1," typically occurs in the context of Fund Management (FM) when you attempt to delete a measure or a funded program that is associated with a specific funded program category. This error indicates that the system has restrictions on deleting certain funded programs based on their category.
