HRPIQ000156 - Details

• The SAP error message HRPIQ000156, which states "Cannot delete object &1," typically occurs in the context of the SAP HR (Human Resources) module, particularly when dealing with infotypes or personnel data. This error indicates that the system is unable to delete a specific object (represented by &1) due to various reasons.
  Causes:
  
  
  Object Dependencies: The object you are trying to delete may have dependencies or relationships with other objects. For example, if the object is linked to a personnel record, contract, or other infotypes, the system will prevent deletion to maintain data integrity.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the object. SAP has strict authorization checks, and if the user lacks the required permissions, the deletion will be blocked.
  
  
  Data Locking: The object might be locked by another user or process. If another transaction is currently using the object, it cannot be deleted until the lock is released.
