• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IP630 - Maintenance plan & already has deletion indicator, so no graphic display ?

  The SAP error message IP630 indicates that a maintenance plan has been marked for deletion, which prevents the graphical display of the maintenance plan in the system. This typically occurs when a maintenance plan is no longer needed or is being replaced by another plan.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error message is that the maintenance plan in question has been flagged with a deletion indicator. This means that the plan is set to be deleted from the system, and as a result, the system does not allow for any graphical representation or further processing of that maintenance plan.
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Maintenance Plan Status:
  
  Go to the transaction code IP02 (Change Maintenance Plan) or IP03 (Display Maintenance Plan).
  Enter the maintenance plan number that is causing the issue.
  Check if the deletion indicator is set.
  
  
  
  Remove the Deletion Indicator:
  
  If you determine that the maintenance plan should not be deleted, you can remove the deletion indicator.

  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  Consult with Your Team:
  
  If you are unsure whether the maintenance plan should be deleted or not, consult with your maintenance planning team or supervisor to confirm the status of the maintenance plan.
  
  
  
  Create a New Maintenance Plan:
  
  If the maintenance plan is indeed obsolete and should be deleted, consider creating a new maintenance plan to replace it, if necessary.
