• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IR063 - & measurement points not deleted: still used as PRT in order ?

  The SAP error message IR063 indicates that a measurement point cannot be deleted because it is still being used as a Production Resource Tool (PRT) in an order. This typically occurs in the context of maintenance or production planning where measurement points are linked to specific orders for tracking purposes.
  Cause:
  
  Active Usage: The measurement point is currently assigned to a production order or maintenance order as a PRT. This means that the system recognizes it as being in use, and therefore, it cannot be deleted.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to prevent the deletion of objects that are still referenced in other transactions or processes.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the IR063 error and delete the measurement point, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Usage:
  
  Check which orders are currently using the measurement point. You can do this by using transaction codes like CO03 (Display Production Order) or IW33 (Display Maintenance Order) to see if the measurement point is linked to any active orders.
  
  
  
  Remove the Measurement Point from Orders:
  
  If the measurement point is linked to an order, you will need to remove it from that order. This can typically be done in the order's PRT assignment section.
  Navigate to the order, go to the PRT tab, and remove the measurement point from the list.
  
  
  
  Delete the Measurement Point:
  
  Once the measurement point is no longer in use, you can proceed to delete it using transaction code IK02 (Change Measurement Point) and then selecting the delete option.
  
  
  
  Check for Other Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that the measurement point is not being used in any other context, such as in other orders, maintenance plans, or equipment.

  Testing: After making changes, it’s a good practice to test the process to ensure that the measurement point is no longer causing issues and that the orders function correctly without it.
