• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message TW114 - Table &: Cannot delete with unqualified key ?

  The SAP error message TW114 indicates that there is an attempt to delete an entry from a table using an unqualified key. This typically occurs when the key fields required to uniquely identify a record in the table are not fully specified, leading to ambiguity about which record should be deleted.
  Cause:
  
  Unqualified Key: The deletion operation is being attempted without providing all the necessary key fields that uniquely identify the record in the table.
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules, and deleting records without a complete key could lead to unintended data loss or corruption.
  Incorrect Logic in Code: If this error arises from custom ABAP code, it may be due to incorrect logic that does not specify all key fields.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Key Fields: Ensure that you are providing all the required key fields when attempting to delete a record. Review the table structure to identify the key fields.
  Modify the Deletion Logic: If this error is occurring in custom ABAP code, modify the code to include all necessary key fields in the deletion statement.
  
  Example: Instead of using a generic delete statement, specify the key fields explicitly.
  DELETE FROM your_table WHERE key_field1 = value1 AND key_field2 = value2.
  
  
  
  Use Transaction Codes: If you are using a transaction code to delete records, ensure that you are following the correct procedure and that all required fields are filled in.
  Check for Locks: Sometimes, records may be locked by other transactions. Ensure that the record you are trying to delete is not locked by another user or process.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Table Structure: You can check the structure of the table in transaction SE11 (Data Dictionary) to identify the key fields.
  ABAP Debugging: If the error is coming from custom code, use the ABAP debugger to step through the code and identify where the deletion is being attempted without the necessary key fields.
  SAP Notes: Check SAP Notes for any known issues or patches related to the specific table or transaction you are working with.
  Documentation: Review SAP documentation for the specific module or table to understand the implications of deleting records and the required key fields.
  
  By ensuring that you provide a fully qualified key when attempting to delete records, you should be able to resolve the TW114 error.
