• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MQ829 - You can only delete objects individually ?

  The SAP error message MQ829, which states "You can only delete objects individually," typically occurs when a user attempts to delete multiple objects (such as transport requests, workbench requests, or other items) in a manner that is not supported by the system. This error is common in transaction codes that manage objects, such as SE09 (Transport Organizer) or SE10 (Transport Organizer for Workbench Requests).
  Cause:
  The primary cause of this error is that the SAP system does not allow the deletion of multiple objects at once. This restriction is in place to prevent accidental deletions and to ensure that users are fully aware of the objects they are removing from the system.
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you need to delete the objects one at a time. Here are the steps you can follow:
  
  Identify the Object: Determine which specific object you want to delete.
  Select the Object: In the relevant transaction (e.g., SE09 or SE10), select the individual object you wish to delete.
  Delete the Object: Use the delete option (usually found in the menu or by right-clicking on the object) to remove the selected object.
  Repeat as Necessary: If you have multiple objects to delete, repeat the process for each object individually.
  
  Related Information:
