• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message L4106 - Inventory & deleted ?

  The SAP error message L4106 ("Inventory & deleted") typically occurs in the context of inventory management and indicates that the system is unable to process a transaction because the inventory item in question has been marked as deleted. This can happen for various reasons, such as data maintenance activities, inventory adjustments, or system errors.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted Material: The material or inventory item has been flagged as deleted in the system, meaning it is no longer available for transactions.
  Data Maintenance: During data maintenance, materials may be marked for deletion, which can lead to this error when trying to perform inventory-related transactions.
  Configuration Issues: There may be configuration settings in the material master that are causing the item to be treated as deleted.
  User Error: The user may be attempting to process an inventory transaction for a material that has been intentionally or unintentionally marked as deleted.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Material Status: Verify the status of the material in the material master record. You can do this by navigating to the material master (transaction code MM03) and checking if the material is marked for deletion.
  Unmark Deletion Flag: If the material is marked for deletion and it should not be, you can unmark the deletion flag. This can be done using transaction code MM02 (Change Material) and navigating to the appropriate views to remove the deletion indicator.
  Review Inventory Transactions: Ensure that you are not trying to perform transactions on materials that are indeed meant to be deleted. If the material is obsolete, consider following the proper procedures for handling obsolete inventory.
  Consult with IT or SAP Support: If you are unsure about the status of the material or how to proceed, consult with your IT department or SAP support team for assistance.
  Check for Related Documents: Ensure that there are no open documents (like purchase orders or sales orders) that are referencing the deleted material, as this could also lead to issues.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as MM03 (Display Material), MM02 (Change Material), and MB1A (Goods Withdrawal) to manage materials effectively.
  Material Master Views: Understand the different views in the material master (Basic Data, Purchasing, Sales, Accounting, etc.) to identify where the deletion flag might be set.
