WTADDI401 - Details

• The SAP error message:
  WTADDI401 Database error: additionals could not be deleted
  typically occurs in the context of Warehouse Management (WM) or Extended Warehouse Management (EWM) when the system tries to delete "additional data" (often related to transfer orders, deliveries, or warehouse tasks) but encounters a database-level issue.
  
  Cause
  
  Database Constraint Violation: The system attempts to delete additional data records that are still referenced by other database entries, causing foreign key or integrity constraint violations.
  Locking Issues: The records to be deleted are locked by another process or user, preventing deletion.
  Inconsistent Data: The additional data entries are inconsistent or corrupted, possibly due to incomplete or failed previous transactions.
  Authorization Issues: The user or process does not have sufficient authorization to delete the data.
  Custom Enhancements or User Exits: Custom code or enhancements interfering with standard deletion logic.
  Technical Issues: Database errors such as deadlocks, timeouts, or hardware problems.
