• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SAPAPO/SCMB_PSTRU074 - Aggregate &1 of planning object structure &2 could not be deleted ?

  The SAP error message /SAPAPO/SCMB_PSTRU074 indicates that there was an attempt to delete an aggregate from a planning object structure in SAP Advanced Planning and Optimization (APO), but the operation could not be completed. This error typically arises due to various reasons related to the configuration and usage of aggregates in APO.
  Causes:
  
  
  Active Planning Objects: The aggregate you are trying to delete may still be in use by active planning objects or processes. If there are any active planning runs or transactions that reference this aggregate, it cannot be deleted.
  
  
  Dependencies: There may be dependencies or references to the aggregate in other configurations or settings within the APO system.
  
  
  Authorization Issues: The user attempting to delete the aggregate may not have the necessary authorizations to perform this action.
  
  
  System Locks: There could be system locks or ongoing processes that prevent the deletion of the aggregate.
  
  
  Incorrect Configuration: The planning object structure or the aggregate itself may not be configured correctly, leading to issues during deletion.
  
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Check Active Processes: Ensure that there are no active planning runs or processes that are using the aggregate. You may need to wait until these processes are completed.
  
  
  Review Dependencies: Investigate if there are any dependencies or references to the aggregate in other configurations. You may need to remove or adjust these dependencies before attempting to delete the aggregate.
  
  
  User Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete aggregates. If not, you may need to adjust the user roles or permissions.
  
  
  System Locks: Check for any system locks that might be preventing the deletion. You can use transaction codes like SM12 to view and manage locks.
  
  
  Correct Configuration: Review the configuration of the planning object structure and the aggregate. Ensure that everything is set up correctly and that there are no inconsistencies.
  
  
  Use Transaction Code: You can use transaction code /SAPAPO/SDP94 to manage aggregates and check their status. This transaction allows you to view and manage aggregates associated with planning object structures.
