• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message MW068 - Supplier & flagged for deletion for purchasing organization & ?

  The SAP error message MW068 indicates that a supplier (vendor) is flagged for deletion in the purchasing organization specified. This means that the vendor is not available for purchasing transactions in that particular purchasing organization due to the deletion flag.
  Cause:
  
  Vendor Flagged for Deletion: The vendor has been marked as flagged for deletion in the vendor master data for the specific purchasing organization.
  Data Maintenance: This could be due to data maintenance activities where the vendor was intentionally flagged for deletion by a user or during a data cleanup process.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve the MW068 error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check Vendor Master Data:
  
  Go to the vendor master data transaction (e.g., XK03 for display).
  Enter the vendor number and the purchasing organization.
  Check the status of the vendor. If it is flagged for deletion, you will need to remove this flag.
  
  
  
  Remove Deletion Flag:
  
  If you have the necessary authorizations, you can change the vendor master data (e.g., using transaction XK02 for change).
  Navigate to the relevant purchasing organization data and uncheck the "Flag for Deletion" option.
  
  
  
  Consult with Relevant Stakeholders:
  
  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change the vendor status, consult with your SAP administrator or the person responsible for vendor management in your organization.
  
  
  
  Review Business Processes:
  
  Ensure that the vendor should indeed be active and not flagged for deletion based on your business processes. If the vendor is no longer needed, consider whether to keep it flagged for deletion.
