  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /PM0/INSOBJ_GEN_MESS034 - You are not permitted to delete structure &1 ?

    The SAP error message /PM0/INSOBJ_GEN_MESS034 indicates that you are trying to delete a structure (or object) in the SAP system for which you do not have the necessary permissions. This is a common issue in SAP environments where authorization checks are in place to prevent unauthorized changes to important data structures.

    Cause:

    1. Authorization Issues: The user attempting to delete the structure does not have the required authorization to perform this action. This could be due to missing roles or permissions in the user's profile.
    2. Object Locking: The structure may be locked by another user or process, preventing deletion.
    3. System Configuration: Certain configurations in the system may restrict the deletion of specific structures to maintain data integrity.

    Solution:

    1. Check Authorizations:

      • Verify the user's roles and authorizations. You can do this by using transaction code SU53 immediately after the error occurs to see what authorization checks failed.
      • If necessary, contact your SAP security administrator to request the appropriate permissions.
    2. Check Object Locking:

      • Use transaction code SM12 to check if the structure is locked by another user. If it is, you may need to wait for the lock to be released or contact the user who has locked it.
    3. Review System Configuration:

      • Ensure that the system configuration allows for the deletion of the structure. This may involve checking settings in the relevant customizing transactions.
    4. Consult Documentation:

      • Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific structure you are trying to delete. There may be specific guidelines or restrictions in place.
