  The SAP error message O8423, which states "Delete Table OIGVTU Key &1 &2 failed (RC=&3)," typically occurs when there is an issue with deleting an entry from the OIGVTU table, which is related to the SAP system's handling of certain data records. The error message includes placeholders for specific key values and a return code (RC) that can provide more context about the failure.
  Cause:
  
  
  Foreign Key Constraints: The most common cause of this error is that there are foreign key constraints preventing the deletion of the record. If the record you are trying to delete is referenced by another table, the deletion will fail.
  
  
  Locking Issues: Another possible cause could be that the record is currently locked by another transaction or user, preventing the deletion.
  
  
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be data integrity issues or inconsistencies in the database that are causing the deletion to fail.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to perform the deletion may not have the necessary authorizations to delete records from the OIGVTU table.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Foreign Key Dependencies: Use transaction codes like SE11 (Data Dictionary) to check if there are any foreign key dependencies for the record you are trying to delete. If there are dependencies, you will need to delete or update those records first.
  
  
  Release Locks: If the record is locked, you can use transaction SM12 to check for locks and release them if necessary. Ensure that you have the appropriate permissions to do this.
  
  
  Data Consistency Check: Run consistency checks on the database to identify and resolve any data integrity issues. You can use transaction codes like SE14 (Database Utility) to check and repair inconsistencies.
  
  
  Check Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete records from the OIGVTU table. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
  
  
  Review Return Code (RC): The return code (RC) provided in the error message can give you more specific information about the nature of the failure. You can look up the return code in SAP documentation or consult with your technical team for further analysis.
  
  
  Related Information:
