  Error Message
  WES_OUTBOUND401: Deletion of bonus buy &1 does not need to be processed
  
  Cause
  This message typically occurs in the context of SAP's Bonus Buy or Promotion Management processes, especially when dealing with outbound processing or integration scenarios (e.g., with SAP IS-Retail or SAP CRM).
  
  The system is trying to process a deletion request for a bonus buy record (promotion or special offer).
  However, the bonus buy record identified by &1 (the placeholder replaced by the actual bonus buy ID) either:
  Does not exist anymore,
  Has already been deleted,
  Or the deletion request is redundant because the system considers that no further action is required.
  
  
  
  In other words, the system recognizes that the deletion operation is unnecessary because the bonus buy is either not present or already handled.
  
  When does it occur?
  
  During outbound processing of bonus buy data
