• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message KZ074 - & & is flagged for deletion - display only ?

  The SAP error message KZ074 indicates that a particular object (such as a cost center, internal order, or other master data) is flagged for deletion and is set to "display only." This means that the object is no longer active for transactions but can still be viewed in the system.
  Cause:
  
  Flagged for Deletion: The object has been marked for deletion in the system. This is typically done when the object is no longer needed for business processes.
  Data Integrity: SAP has mechanisms to ensure data integrity, and objects flagged for deletion are restricted from being used in new transactions to prevent inconsistencies.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review the Object: Check the object in question to understand why it was flagged for deletion. This can be done by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., transaction code KS03 for cost centers).
  Unflag the Deletion: If the object needs to be reactivated, you can unflag it for deletion. This usually involves:
  
  Accessing the master data of the object.
  Removing the deletion flag in the relevant field.
  Saving the changes.
  
  
  Consult with Stakeholders: Before unflagging, ensure that this action is aligned with business processes and that stakeholders are informed.
