& process instruction categories could not be deleted
Help Document

Diagnosis

of the selected process instruction categories could not be deleted. This could be for one of the following reasons:

  • You have selected the option "Without Dependent Entries" for deletion. This means that only process instruction categories without process instruction characteristics are deleted. However, process instruction characteristics are assigned to this process instruction category.
  • The process instruction category is used in at least one control recipe destination. (See the Customizing activity "Define and Set Up Control Recipe Destinations", view "Process instructions to be generated").

System Response

Procedure

If you still want to delete the process instruction category, proceed as follows, depending on the cause of the error:

  • When deleting, choose the option "All Entries".
  • Check and delete the assignment of the process instruction category to control recipe destinations.
