• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WU084 - Theme cannot be deleted. It is assigned to material & ?

  The SAP error message WU084 indicates that a theme (in this case, a user interface theme) cannot be deleted because it is currently assigned to a material. This typically occurs in the context of SAP's user interface customization, where themes are used to define the appearance of the user interface elements.
  Cause:
  
  Assignment to Material: The theme you are trying to delete is linked to one or more materials in the system. This means that the theme is actively being used, and SAP prevents its deletion to maintain data integrity.
  Dependencies: There may be other dependencies or configurations that rely on the theme being present.
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, you can follow these steps:
  
  
  Identify the Assignment:
  
  Use transaction codes like MM03 (Display Material) to check which materials are assigned to the theme.
  You may also need to check the configuration settings in the relevant customizing transactions.
  
  
  
  Remove the Assignment:
  
  If you find that the theme is assigned to specific materials, you will need to remove the assignment from those materials. This can typically be done in the material master data.
  Navigate to the relevant views in the material master and change the theme assignment.
  
  
  
  Delete the Theme:
  
  Once the theme is no longer assigned to any materials, you should be able to delete it without encountering the error.
  
  
  
  Check for Other Dependencies:
  
  Ensure that there are no other dependencies or configurations that might be using the theme. This may include checking for any user roles or profiles that reference the theme.
  
  
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with relevant transaction codes such as SE80 (Object Navigator) or SPRO (Customizing) to navigate through the system settings.
  Documentation: Refer to SAP Help documentation for more details on themes and their management.
  User Roles: If the theme is part of a user role or profile, you may need to adjust those settings as well.
