  The SAP error message RESCSU074 indicates that a certain object (like a reservation or a stock item) cannot be processed because a deletion indicator or flag is set. This typically means that the system has marked the object for deletion, and as a result, it cannot be modified or deleted through standard transactions.
  Cause:
  
  Deletion Indicator Set: The object you are trying to work with has a deletion indicator set, which prevents any further processing.
  Data Integrity: The system is designed to maintain data integrity by preventing changes to objects that are marked for deletion.
  Business Logic: Certain business processes may require that objects marked for deletion remain unchanged until they are fully processed or removed from the system.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check the Object: Identify the specific object (e.g., reservation, stock item) that is causing the error. You can do this by checking the details of the transaction you are trying to perform.
  Review Deletion Indicator: Use transaction codes like SE16 or SE11 to view the relevant database table and check if the deletion indicator is set for the object in question.
  Remove Deletion Indicator: If it is appropriate to do so, you can remove the deletion indicator. This typically involves:

  Finding the specific record and unchecking the deletion indicator.
  
  
  Consult with Business Process Owner: Before making changes, consult with the relevant business process owner or team to ensure that removing the deletion indicator aligns with business policies.
  Use Correct Transactions: Ensure you are using the correct transactions for the operations you are trying to perform. Some transactions may not allow changes to objects with deletion indicators.
  
  Related Information:
