• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TD681 - ID &1 for object &2 cannot be deleted ?

  The SAP error message TD681 indicates that a transport request (or object) cannot be deleted. This error typically occurs when you attempt to delete a transport request or an object that is still in use or has dependencies that prevent its deletion.
  Cause:
  
  Transport Request Status: The transport request may be in a status that does not allow deletion (e.g., it is released or already imported into a target system).
  Dependencies: The object you are trying to delete may have dependencies or references in other transport requests or objects.
  Authorization Issues: You may not have the necessary authorizations to delete the transport request or object.
  Object Locking: The object might be locked by another user or process, preventing its deletion.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Transport Request Status: Verify the status of the transport request. If it is released or imported, you cannot delete it. You may need to revert or delete the transport in the target system first.
  Check Dependencies: Use transaction SE01 or SE09 to check if there are any dependencies for the object. If there are, you may need to resolve those dependencies before deletion.
  Authorization Check: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to delete the transport request or object. You may need to contact your SAP security administrator for assistance.
  Unlock Objects: If the object is locked, you can check the lock entries using transaction SM12. If you have the necessary permissions, you can unlock the object.
  Use Transport Organizer: If you are using the Transport Organizer (SE09 or SE10), ensure you are following the correct procedure for deleting transport requests.
