  SAP Error Message:
  WES_OUTBOUND090: Entry &1 cannot be deleted
  
  Cause:
  This error typically occurs in the SAP Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) module during outbound processing. The message indicates that a specific entry (such as a delivery, outbound delivery item, or warehouse task) cannot be deleted because it is either:
  
  Already processed or confirmed in the system.
  Linked to other dependent documents or processes that prevent deletion.
  Locked or in a status that disallows deletion.
  The system logic or business rules do not permit deletion of this entry at the current stage.
  
  In EWM, for example, outbound delivery or warehouse tasks that have been confirmed or are in a status beyond a certain point cannot be deleted to maintain data consistency.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, consider the following steps:
  
  
  Check the Status of the Entry:
  
  Verify the status of the outbound delivery, warehouse task, or related document.
  If it is already confirmed or partially processed, deletion is not allowed.
  
  
  
  Reverse or Cancel Confirmations:
  
  If possible, reverse any confirmations or postings related to the entry.
  For example, in EWM, you may need to cancel warehouse task confirmations before deletion.
  
  
  
  Check for Dependent Documents:
  
  Identify if there are any dependent documents (e.g., transfer orders, deliveries, goods movements) linked to the entry.
  These dependencies must be removed or reversed first.
  
  
  
  Use Correct Transaction or Program:
  
  Ensure you are using the appropriate SAP transaction or report to delete the entry.
  Some entries can only be deleted via specific transactions or by using SAP standard programs.
  
  
  
  Authorization Check:
  
  Confirm that the user has the necessary authorizations to delete the entry.
  
  
  
  Consult SAP Notes or Support:
  
  If the above steps do not resolve the issue, check SAP Notes for any known bugs or patches related to this message.
