• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message IW612 - Functional location task list & & not included owing to deletion flag set ?

  The SAP error message IW612 indicates that a functional location task list is not included in a particular operation or process because a deletion flag has been set for that task list. This typically occurs in the context of maintenance planning and execution within the SAP PM (Plant Maintenance) module.
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the task list associated with a functional location has been marked for deletion. This means that the task list is no longer considered valid for use in maintenance planning or execution. The deletion flag can be set for various reasons, such as:
  
  The task list is outdated or no longer relevant.
  The task list has been replaced by a new version.
  The task list was intentionally marked for deletion by a user.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the IW612 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Task List Status:
  
  Navigate to the task list in question using transaction code IA05 (for general task lists) or IA06 (for maintenance task lists).
  Verify if the deletion flag is set. If it is, you will need to determine if the task list should be reinstated or if it can be permanently deleted.
  
  
  
  Remove the Deletion Flag:
  
  If the task list is still relevant, you can remove the deletion flag. This can typically be done by editing the task list and unchecking the deletion flag.
  Save the changes to the task list.
  
  
  
  Create a New Task List:
  
  If the task list is outdated and should not be reinstated, consider creating a new task list that reflects the current maintenance requirements.
  
  
  
  Update Maintenance Plans:
  
  If the task list is part of a maintenance plan, ensure that the maintenance plan is updated to reference the correct task list.
