• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message RX124 - Available active version of object &1 could not be deleted ?

  The SAP error message RX124 indicates that there is an issue with deleting an active version of an object in the SAP system. This error typically occurs when you attempt to delete an active version of a transport object (like a program, function module, or other repository objects) that is currently in use or has dependencies that prevent its deletion.
  Cause:
  
  Active Version in Use: The object you are trying to delete is currently active in the system and is being used by other programs or transactions.
  Dependencies: There may be other objects that depend on the active version of the object you are trying to delete.
  Transport Request Issues: The object might be part of a transport request that has not been fully processed or released.
  Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations to delete the object can also lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction SE80 or SE11 to check if there are any dependencies on the object you are trying to delete. If there are dependent objects, you will need to address those first.
  Deactivate the Object: If possible, deactivate the active version of the object before attempting to delete it. This can be done using transaction SE80 or SE11.
  Transport Request: Ensure that the object is not part of an open transport request. If it is, you may need to release or delete the transport request first.
  Check for Locks: Use transaction SM12 to check if there are any locks on the object that might be preventing its deletion.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete the object. You may need to consult with your SAP security team if you suspect authorization issues.
