This error typically occurs when you attempt to delete or modify a document link that is either locked, has dependencies, or is not allowed to be deleted due to certain business rules or configurations.

  Authorization Check: Ensure that the user attempting to delete the document link has the necessary authorizations. If not, contact your system administrator to grant the required permissions.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes (like MDG_MAT or MDG_BS) to check the status of the document and its links.
