  Technical Errors: There could be underlying technical issues with the database or the SAP application itself.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check for Locks: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for any locks on the database tables related to the mapping data. If locks are found, you may need to wait for them to be released or contact the user who holds the lock.
  Review Foreign Key Constraints: Check the database schema to ensure that there are no foreign key constraints preventing the deletion. You may need to delete or update related records first.
