  The SAP error message REMMMN096 indicates that a mandate (a legal authorization for direct debit transactions) has a deletion flag set, which means that the mandate is marked for deletion and cannot be used for further processing.
  Cause:
  The error typically arises in the context of payment processing, particularly when dealing with direct debit mandates. The deletion flag may have been set for several reasons, including:
  
  The mandate is no longer valid or has been canceled by the customer.
  The mandate was manually flagged for deletion by a user.
  There may be a configuration issue or a data integrity problem in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can take the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Mandate Status:

  Create a New Mandate:
  
  If the mandate is indeed no longer valid, you may need to create a new mandate for the customer. Ensure that all necessary information is correctly entered.
