• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL141 - Canceled action &2 was removed because action &3 was removed ?

  The SAP error message PLM_FMEA_APPL141 indicates that a specific action in the Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) process has been canceled or removed due to the removal of another related action. This error typically arises in the context of managing actions within the FMEA module of SAP PLM (Product Lifecycle Management).
  Cause:
  
  Dependency Between Actions: The error usually occurs when there is a dependency between actions in the FMEA process. If a parent action is removed or canceled, any child actions that depend on it may also be automatically removed.
  Data Integrity Issues: There may be issues with data integrity or consistency within the FMEA records, leading to the cancellation of actions.
  User Actions: A user may have manually canceled or removed an action that is linked to other actions, triggering this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Review Action Dependencies: Check the relationships between the actions in the FMEA. Identify which action was removed and understand its dependencies. You may need to restore or re-create the removed action if it is essential for the remaining actions.
  Check for Data Integrity: Ensure that the FMEA data is consistent and that there are no orphaned actions or records. You may need to run consistency checks or validation processes within SAP.
  Recreate Canceled Actions: If the canceled action is still relevant, you can recreate it and ensure that all dependent actions are correctly linked.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on managing actions within the FMEA module.
  Contact SAP Support: If the issue persists or if you are unsure about the actions to take, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance.
