• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message PQ120 - &1 entry was deleted. &2 entries were not deleted. ?

  The SAP error message PQ120 typically indicates that there was an issue with deleting entries in the system, specifically related to the deletion of planned orders or production orders in the context of SAP's Production Planning (PP) module. The message format suggests that one entry was deleted successfully, while others were not deleted due to certain constraints or conditions.
  Cause:
  
  Dependencies: The entries you are trying to delete may have dependencies or relationships with other objects (e.g., dependent requirements, linked production orders, etc.) that prevent their deletion.
  Status Issues: The entries may be in a status that does not allow deletion (e.g., if they are already confirmed or have been partially processed).
  Authorization: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete certain entries.
  Data Integrity: There may be data integrity issues or inconsistencies in the database that prevent the deletion of certain entries.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Review the entries you are trying to delete and check for any dependencies. Ensure that there are no linked orders or requirements that would prevent deletion.
  Status Review: Verify the status of the entries. If they are in a status that does not allow deletion, you may need to change their status or take appropriate actions to allow for deletion.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user attempting to delete the entries has the necessary authorizations. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
  Use Transaction Codes: Use relevant transaction codes (like CO02 for production orders or MD04 for stock/requirements list) to check the status and dependencies of the entries.
  Error Logs: Check the system logs or error messages for more detailed information about why the deletion failed. This can provide insights into specific issues that need to be addressed.
  Consult Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidance on the error message and related processes.
