• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/MSDP_PB136 - Deletion flag not transported for subsequent objects ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/MSDP_PB136: Deletion flag not transported for subsequent objects typically occurs in the context of SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO) when there is an issue with the deletion flag for certain objects not being properly propagated to dependent or subsequent objects. This can happen during processes such as data transfer, planning, or when managing master data.
  Cause:
  
  Deletion Flag Not Set: The deletion flag for a master data object (like a product or location) may not have been set correctly, or the system is unable to recognize that the object should be deleted.
  Data Consistency Issues: There may be inconsistencies in the data model or relationships between objects that prevent the deletion flag from being transported.
  Custom Logic or Enhancements: Custom code or enhancements in the system may interfere with the standard behavior of the deletion flag propagation.
  Transport Issues: If the objects are being transported between different systems (e.g., from development to production), there may be issues with the transport itself.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Deletion Flag: Verify that the deletion flag is set correctly for the object in question. You can do this by checking the relevant master data in the SAP GUI.
  Consistency Check: Run consistency checks for the relevant master data objects to identify any inconsistencies that may be causing the issue.
  Manual Deletion: If the deletion flag is not propagating as expected, you may need to manually delete the dependent objects or set the deletion flag for them.
  Review Custom Code: If there are any custom enhancements or modifications, review them to ensure they are not interfering with the standard deletion process.
  Transport Management: If the issue is related to transport, ensure that all relevant objects are included in the transport request and that the transport is executed correctly.
  SAP Notes: Check for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error or provide patches or updates to resolve the issue.
