• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message SCPR587 - BC Set &1: Deletions in table &2 (delivery class '&3') not allowed ?

  The SAP error message SCPR587 indicates that there is an attempt to delete entries in a table that is not allowed due to its delivery class settings. This typically occurs when working with Business Configuration Sets (BC Sets) in SAP, which are used to transport configuration settings between systems.
  Cause:
  The error message SCPR587 is triggered when:
  
  You are trying to delete entries from a table that has a delivery class that does not permit deletions. Delivery classes define how data in a table can be managed, and certain classes restrict deletion operations.
  The table in question is likely defined with a delivery class that specifies it is either client-dependent or client-independent, and the configuration does not allow for deletions.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this issue, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check Delivery Class: Identify the delivery class of the table in question. You can do this by using transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) and looking up the table. The delivery class will indicate whether deletions are allowed.
  
  
  Review BC Set Configuration: If you are working with a BC Set, ensure that the configuration you are trying to apply does not include deletions. You may need to adjust the BC Set to exclude any entries that would result in deletions.
  
  
  Modify the BC Set: If you have the necessary authorizations, you can modify the BC Set to remove the entries that are causing the deletion attempt. This can be done using transaction SCPR20 (BC Set Management).
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or notes related to the specific table and its delivery class to understand the implications of the delivery class settings.
  
  
  Seek Help from SAP Support: If you are unable to resolve the issue, consider reaching out to SAP support for assistance, especially if this is impacting critical business processes.
