• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message /SCMB/BP035 - Cannot delete SCAC &1; SCAC is inherited from carrier &2 ?

  The SAP error message /SCMB/BP035 indicates that you are trying to delete a Supply Chain Area Code (SCAC) that is inherited from a carrier. This typically occurs in the context of SAP Supply Chain Management (SCM) when there are dependencies or relationships that prevent the deletion of the SCAC.
  Cause:
  
  Inheritance from Carrier: The SCAC you are trying to delete is linked to a carrier, meaning that it is being used in some configuration or transaction related to that carrier.
  Active Assignments: The SCAC may have active assignments or relationships with other objects in the system, such as transportation lanes, shipments, or other logistics-related entities.
  Data Integrity Constraints: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that deleting an SCAC does not lead to orphaned records or inconsistencies in the system.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Check Dependencies:
  
  Investigate where the SCAC is being used. Look for any active assignments to carriers, transportation lanes, or other logistics objects.
  Use transaction codes like /SCMB/SCAC or relevant reports to view the relationships and dependencies.
  
  
  
  Remove Assignments:
  
  If you find that the SCAC is assigned to a carrier or other objects, you will need to remove those assignments first. This may involve:
  
  Deleting or modifying transportation lanes.
  Unassigning the SCAC from the carrier.
  
  
  
  
  
  Delete the SCAC:
  
  Once all dependencies are cleared, you should be able to delete the SCAC without encountering the error.
