  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WXP109 - The selected objects have been flagged for deletion ?

    SAP Error Message:
    WXP109 - The selected objects have been flagged for deletion


    Cause:

    This warning message appears when you try to perform an operation (such as editing, activating, or transporting) on SAP objects that have already been marked (flagged) for deletion in the system. In SAP, objects can be flagged for deletion to indicate that they are scheduled to be removed or cleaned up during a later cleanup or deletion process.

    Common scenarios include:

    • Trying to activate or modify a development object (like a program, function module, or table) that has been flagged for deletion.
    • Attempting to transport or include flagged objects in a transport request.
    • Accessing objects in the repository that are logically deleted but not yet physically removed.

    Solution:

    1. Check the Deletion Flag:

      • Use transaction codes like SE03 (Transport Organizer Tools) or SE80 (Object Navigator) to check the status of the object.
      • In SE80, navigate to the object and check if it is flagged for deletion.
    2. Remove the Deletion Flag (if appropriate):

      • If the object was flagged for deletion by mistake or you want to restore it, you can remove the deletion flag.
      • This usually requires developer or basis authorization.
      • For some objects, you can use the function module RS_OBJ_DEL_FLAG_RESET or similar tools to reset the deletion flag.
      • Alternatively, in SE80, you might be able to "undelete" or reactivate the object if the system allows.
    3. Delete the Object Permanently:

      • If the object is no longer needed, proceed with the deletion process.
      • Use the appropriate deletion transaction or tools to physically delete the object from the system.
      • After deletion, the object will no longer appear or cause warnings.
    4. Check Transport Requests:

      • If the object is part of a transport request, ensure that the transport request is consistent.
      • Sometimes flagged objects cause transport errors; you may need to remove or adjust the transport request.
    5. Consult Basis or Development Team:

      • If unsure, consult your SAP Basis or development team to understand why the object was flagged and the best course of action.

    Related Information:

    • Flagging for Deletion:
      SAP allows objects to be flagged for deletion as a soft-delete mechanism. This helps prevent accidental loss and allows administrators to review objects before permanent deletion.

    • Common Objects Affected:
      Programs, function modules, classes, tables, and other repository objects.

    • Transaction Codes:

      • SE80: Object Navigator to view and manage repository objects.
      • SE03: Transport Organizer Tools to manage transport requests and objects.
      • SE38: ABAP Editor to check programs.
      • SE11: Data Dictionary for tables and structures.
    • Function Modules:

      • RS_OBJ_DEL_FLAG_SET — to flag an object for deletion.
      • RS_OBJ_DEL_FLAG_RESET — to remove the deletion flag.
    • SAP Notes:
      Check SAP Notes related to WXP109 or object deletion for specific patches or updates.


    Summary:

    • Cause: Object is flagged for deletion and cannot be processed normally.
    • Solution: Either remove the deletion flag if the object is still needed or proceed with permanent deletion.
    • Check: Object status in SE80/SE03, consult with development or basis teams, and handle transport requests accordingly.

    If you provide the specific object type or transaction you encountered this message in, I can give more tailored advice.
