WU821 - Details

• The SAP error message WU821 indicates that the deletion of a plant group is not possible because discount processing has already started. This typically occurs in the context of sales and distribution (SD) or materials management (MM) modules where discounts are applied to sales orders or other transactions related to the plant group.
  
  Cause:
  
  
  Active Discount Processing: The primary cause of this error is that there are ongoing transactions or processes that involve discounts associated with the plant group you are trying to delete. This could include sales orders, pricing conditions, or other related documents that have already been processed or are currently being processed.
  
  
  Data Integrity: SAP enforces data integrity rules to ensure that changes do not disrupt ongoing processes. If discounts are being applied, deleting the plant group could lead to inconsistencies in pricing and financial records.
  
  
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Check Active Transactions: Review any active sales orders, contracts, or pricing conditions that are associated
