  The SAP error message SWDP_WB_TOOL124 ("The navigation link was deleted") typically occurs in the context of the SAP Web Dynpro application development environment. This error indicates that a navigation link that was previously defined in the application has been removed or is no longer valid.
  Cause:
  
  Deleted Navigation Link: The most common cause is that a navigation link that was referenced in the application has been deleted or is not available anymore.
  Changes in Application Structure: If there have been changes in the application structure, such as renaming or removing components, this can lead to broken navigation links.
  Transport Issues: If the application was transported from one system to another, and the navigation links were not included in the transport, this could lead to missing links.
  Development Environment Issues: Sometimes, issues in the development environment or inconsistencies in the metadata can lead to this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Navigation Links: Go to the Web Dynpro component and check the navigation links defined in the application. Ensure that all links are valid and point to existing views or components.
  Recreate Deleted Links: If a navigation link was accidentally deleted, recreate it by defining the link again in the Web Dynpro component configuration.
  Review Changes: If there have been recent changes to the application, review those changes to ensure that they did not inadvertently affect the navigation links.
  Transport Consistency: If the issue arose after a transport, check the transport logs and ensure that all necessary objects were included in the transport request.
  Clear Cache: Sometimes, clearing the cache of the Web Dynpro application can resolve issues related to outdated metadata. You can do this by using transaction code SICF to refresh the service or by using the Web Dynpro application cache clearing options.
  Check for Dependencies: Ensure that any dependent components or views are also available and correctly configured.
