  • What causes this issue?

    If the deletion flag is set for a matchcode ID, matchcode records are
    not deleted physically. They are simply marked with a deletion flag.
    However, when using update type I, matchcode data is implemented
    directly as a database view. The SAP system does not save its own
    matchcode records for this type of matchcode. Setting the deletion flag
    therefore makes no sense for matchcode IDs of update type I.

    System Response

    The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

    How to fix this error?

    Cancel the deletion flag.
