  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IR207 - Measuring point &1 is marked for deletion ?

    The SAP error message IR207, which states "Measuring point &1 is marked for deletion," typically occurs in the context of SAP's Plant Maintenance (PM) or Environmental, Health, and Safety (EHS) modules. This error indicates that the measuring point you are trying to access or use has been flagged for deletion in the system.

    Cause:

    1. Marked for Deletion: The measuring point has been marked for deletion in the system, which means it is no longer active or valid for use in transactions.
    2. Data Integrity Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data, such as attempts to use a measuring point that is not fully deleted or has dependencies that prevent its use.
    3. User Permissions: The user may not have the necessary permissions to access or modify the measuring point.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Status: Verify the status of the measuring point in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., IL03 for measuring points) and checking if it is indeed marked for deletion.
    2. Unmark for Deletion: If the measuring point should still be active, you can unmark it for deletion. This can typically be done in the measuring point master data by changing the deletion flag.
      • Use transaction code IL02 to change the measuring point and remove the deletion flag.
    3. Delete the Measuring Point: If the measuring point is no longer needed, you can proceed with the deletion process. Ensure that all dependencies are resolved before doing this.
    4. Check User Permissions: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and modify measuring points. If not, contact your SAP security administrator to adjust permissions.
