• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RECAAR054 - Check: Deletion indicator not allowed to be set for &1 object(s) ?

  The SAP error message RECAAR054 indicates that there is an attempt to set a deletion indicator for certain objects that are not allowed to have this indicator set. This typically occurs in the context of Asset Accounting or Real Estate Management, where certain objects may have restrictions on deletion due to their status or dependencies.
  Cause:
  
  Object Status: The object you are trying to delete may be in a status that does not allow for deletion. For example, if the object is still active or has transactions associated with it, the system will prevent you from setting a deletion indicator.
  Dependencies: The object may have dependencies with other objects or transactions that prevent it from being deleted. For instance, if there are open transactions or linked documents, the deletion indicator cannot be set.
  Configuration Settings: There may be configuration settings in the system that restrict the deletion of certain types of objects.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Status: Review the status of the object you are trying to delete. Ensure that it is in a state that allows for deletion. If it is active, you may need to deactivate it first.
  Review Dependencies: Check for any open transactions or linked documents associated with the object. You may need to clear these transactions or unlink documents before you can set the deletion indicator.
  Consult Configuration: If you suspect that configuration settings are causing the issue, consult with your SAP administrator or a functional consultant to review the settings related to the object type in question.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes (like AS02 for Asset Master Data) to check the details of the object and its status.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP documentation or help resources for specific guidelines on the object type you are dealing with, as there may be specific rules or processes to follow.
