  Transport Request Issues: If the object is part of a transport request, the request may be in a state that does not allow deletion (e.g., it is already released or imported).

  Check Dependencies: Review the object for any dependencies or references that need to be resolved before deletion. This may involve checking for linked objects or dependencies in the transport management system.
