  The SAP error message /SAPCND/GEN_CODE407 indicates that there was an issue with deleting a function module in a function group. The specific message states that the function module (identified by &1) of the function group (identified by &2) could not be deleted. This error typically arises during the transport or modification of function groups and modules in the SAP system.
  Causes:
  
  Dependencies: The function module you are trying to delete may have dependencies or references in other objects (like other function modules, programs, or classes) that prevent its deletion.
  Transport Issues: If the function module is part of a transport request that is currently being processed or has not been released, it may not be possible to delete it.
  Authorization Issues: The user may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the function module.
  System Lock: The function module might be locked by another user or process, preventing deletion.
  Inconsistent State: The function group or module may be in an inconsistent state due to previous errors or incomplete changes.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction SE80 or SE37 to check for any dependencies or references to the function module. Remove or adjust these dependencies if necessary.
  Release Transport Requests: Ensure that any transport requests related to the function module are released. You can check this in transaction SE09 or SE10.
  Check Authorizations: Verify that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete function modules. This can be checked in transaction SU53 or by consulting with your security team.
  Unlock the Object: If the function module is locked, you can check the lock status using transaction SM12. If necessary, unlock the object or wait for the lock to be released.
  Consistency Check: Perform a consistency check on the function group and its modules. You can use transaction SE80 to analyze the function group for any inconsistencies.
  Use Transaction SE37: If you are trying to delete a function module, you can also try to do it directly in transaction SE37. Sometimes, using the specific transaction can provide more detailed error messages or options.
