Message text: & entries could not be deleted
When deleting an entry, the system found that this would have caused a
dataset inconsistency. This can happen, for example, if within a
hierarchy of table entries (Header entry --> Item entry) a header entry
is deleted, for which item entries still exist.
No entries were deleted. The entries are still selected.
Please check whether, when deleting an entry, it is also necessary to
delete dependent entries in order to achieve dataset consistency. Then
call the function again.
