  Incorrect InfoObject: The specified InfoObject may not exist or may not be correctly configured.

  Check for Technical Issues: Review the system logs (transaction SLG1) for any technical errors that might provide more context on why the deletion failed.
  
  
  Validate InfoObject Configuration: Ensure that the InfoObject you are trying to delete data from is correctly configured and exists in the system.
