• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/APOGRID118 - {DeleteRow} Line: & / Pos: & does not exist ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/APOGRID118 {DeleteRow} Line: & / Pos: & does not exist typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is an attempt to delete a row from a grid or table that does not exist. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when working with planning books, data views, or other grid-based interfaces in APO.
  Causes:
  
  Invalid Row Reference: The row number or position specified for deletion does not correspond to any existing row in the grid. This could be due to a programming error or a user action that attempted to delete a row that has already been removed.
  Data Refresh Issues: If the grid data has been refreshed or modified after the row was initially displayed, the row may no longer exist.
  Concurrency Issues: If multiple users are working on the same data set, one user may delete a row while another user is trying to delete it, leading to this error.
  Incorrect Logic in Custom Code: If there is custom ABAP code or enhancements that manipulate the grid, there may be logic errors that lead to referencing non-existent rows.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Row Existence: Before attempting to delete a row, ensure that the row number or position exists in the grid. This can be done by validating the current state of the grid.
  Refresh the Grid: If the grid data has changed, refresh the grid to ensure that you are working with the most current data.
  Error Handling in Custom Code: If you are using custom code, implement error handling to check for the existence of the row before attempting to delete it.
  User Coordination: If multiple users are accessing the same data, ensure that there is proper coordination to avoid conflicts.
  Debugging: If the issue persists, consider debugging the application to trace the exact point where the error occurs and to understand the state of the grid at that time.
