• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PLMB/BA_CCK032 - Variant &1 deleted ?

  The SAP error message /PLMB/BA_CCK032 Variant &1 deleted typically indicates that a variant (a saved set of parameters for a report or transaction) has been deleted in the system. This can happen for various reasons, such as user actions, system cleanup processes, or changes in the configuration.
  Cause:
  
  User Deletion: A user may have manually deleted the variant.
  System Cleanup: The system may have a scheduled job that cleans up old or unused variants.

  Check Variant Existence: Verify if the variant still exists in the system. You can do this by navigating to the relevant transaction (e.g., SE38 for reports) and checking the variants available for that report.
  Recreate the Variant: If the variant has indeed been deleted, you may need to recreate it. This involves setting the parameters again and saving them as a new variant.
  Check User Authorizations: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access the variant. If not, you may need to adjust the user roles or permissions.
  Review System Logs: Check the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any messages related to the deletion of the variant. This may provide insights into why it was deleted.
