What causes this issue?

You want to delete a HU for which the confirmation and stock posting
have already been made. Deleting the HU would only change the material
stock in the HU from packed to unpacked. All other actions that affect
the confirmation of the production order or repetitive manufacturing,
such as removing components or activity backflushes, cannot be reversed.

System Response

The system issues an error message and will not allow you to continue with this transaction until the error is resolved.

How to fix this error?

Cancel the HU in the confirmation for the production order or in the
confirmation for repetitive manufacturing. Only then can you delete the
HU using this function.
