  Change Document Status: If applicable, change the status of the production order or related documents to a status that allows for deletion (e.g., set to "teardown" or "completed").
  Review Dependencies: Check for any dependencies or linked documents that may be preventing deletion. Resolve any issues with these dependencies first.
  Use Transaction Codes: Utilize relevant transaction codes to manage production orders, such as CO02 (Change Production Order) or CO03 (Display Production Order), to review the status and details of the production run.
