  Error Message
  WT130: Requirements group &1 is still in use and cannot be deleted
  
  Cause
  This error occurs when you attempt to delete a Requirements Group in SAP that is still assigned or referenced in other objects or configurations. The system prevents deletion to maintain data integrity because the requirements group is actively used in:
  
  Work center assignments
  Routing operations
  Production versions
  Task lists
  Other master data or configuration settings related to production or planning
  
  
  Explanation
  A Requirements Group in SAP is used to group similar requirements for production or planning purposes. If the group is still linked to any master data or transactional data, deleting it would cause inconsistencies or errors in the system.
  
  Solution
  To resolve this error and delete the requirements group, follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify where the requirements group is used:
  
  Check work centers (transaction CR03 or CR02) to see if the requirements group is assigned.
  Check routing operations (transaction CA03 or CA02) for the requirements group.
  Check production versions (transaction C223) or task lists.
  Use SAP standard reports or tables to find references:
  
  Table CRHD (Work Center header) field BEDARFSGR (Requirements Group)
  Table PLKO (Routing header)
  Table PLPO (Routing operations)
  Table MAPL (Assignment of task lists to materials)
  
  
  
  
  
  Remove or change the requirements group assignment:
  
  For each object found, either remove the requirements group or assign a different one.
  Save the changes.
  
  
  
  After all references are removed, delete the requirements group again:
  
  Use transaction OPPR (Maintain Requirements Groups) or the relevant IMG path.
  Now the system should allow deletion without error.
  
  
  
  
  Additional Information
  
  
  Transaction codes:
  
  OPPR – Maintain Requirements Groups
  CR03 / CR02 – Display / Change Work Center
  CA03 / CA02 – Display / Change Routing
  C223 – Maintain Production Versions
  
  
  
  Tables to check:
  
  CRHD – Work Center Header Data
  PLKO – Routing Header
  PLPO – Routing Operations
  MAPL – Assignment of Task Lists to Materials
  
  
  
  Note: Always perform such changes in a development or test environment first and ensure no active production processes depend on the requirements group before deletion.
