• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message VERT_TOOLS012 - Object type deleted. ?

  The SAP error message VERT_TOOLS012: Object type deleted typically occurs in the context of SAP's data management and transport tools, particularly when dealing with objects in the SAP system that have been marked for deletion or are no longer available.
  Cause:
  
  Object Deletion: The most common cause of this error is that the object you are trying to access or manipulate has been deleted from the system. This could happen due to a manual deletion, a transport that removed the object, or a cleanup process that purged old or unused objects.
  Transport Issues: If you are working with transports, the object may have been deleted in the target system but still exists in the source system.
  Inconsistent State: The system may be in an inconsistent state where references to the object still exist, but the object itself has been removed.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Object Existence: Verify if the object still exists in the system. You can do this by using transaction codes relevant to the object type (e.g., SE11 for database tables, SE80 for development objects).
  Restore Object: If the object was deleted accidentally, you may need to restore it from a backup or re-create it if possible.
  Transport Management: If the issue is related to transports, ensure that the transport requests are correctly managed. Check if the object is included in the transport request and if it has been successfully imported into the target system.
  Clear Cache: Sometimes, clearing the cache or refreshing the object list can resolve inconsistencies. You can do this by using transaction code SE38 to run the report RS_TRANSTR or similar reports that refresh the object status.
  Check for Dependencies: Investigate if there are any dependent objects that might be causing the error. Sometimes, other objects rely on the deleted object, leading to this error message.
  
  Related Information:
