This message indicates that a record in the dataset being processed has been marked as deleted, and as a result, it is being skipped during the upload process.

  Check Record Status: Verify the status of the record in the database. You can do this by querying the relevant table to see if the record is indeed marked as deleted.
  Unflag the Record: If the record should not be deleted, you can unflag it. This typically involves updating the record in the database to remove the deletion flag.
  Data Preparation: Ensure that the data being uploaded does not include records that are marked as deleted. You may need to filter out these records from your upload file.
  Use Different Upload Mode: If you need to process records that are marked as deleted for some reason, consider using a different upload mode that allows for such records to be processed, if applicable.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You may use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to view the data in the relevant tables and check the status of the records.
