Can we delete a document type?

Dear All,
I created a document type supposedly to be used in a One-sided reclassifcation.
But, i understood that, one-sided reclassification will not post a document.
(I have configured this long back & i believe that it did not allow me to create the One-sided recalssification task without creating the document type. But, i m not sure of this).
Now - if i try to delete this document type - system will not allow me.
It gives an error message as
If you want to delete Document Type R1, you must first change Cons of Investments C1 so that Document Type R1 is no longer used.
Note that further uses of Document Type R1 may exist. That is, after you have changed Cons of Investments C1, the system may display yet another usage the next time you attempt the deletion. Hence, make sure you eliminate all uses of Document Type R1.
In my system there is no C1 in Consolidation of Investments.
Is this C1 a special version?
I searched in special versions - but could not make any sense there.
Any clues on how to go about this?
Thnaks!
Kumar

Thanks Dan,
There is no task or method with the name C1.
Re:"It is suggested you executed a "where used" search on the document type R1 as it may be used in another version".
Yeah, i did this before.
Here is what i got:
Master data Characterisitics: 1 use (this is a folder icon)
Cons of Investments Charact Values: 1 use (this is a folder icon)
Characteristic C1 (this is a charcteristic - adjacent to this there is a button to change it)
When i click the change button, I get a message
No maintenance screen exists for the object
Diagnosis
Using the where-used list, you found a data record that is version-dependent. The data record belongs to special version type Consolidation of Investments and special version 100.
Procedure
If you want to display or change the data record in the Workbench, you should check the parameters to see if a version combination belonging to special version type Consolidation of Investments and special version 100 has been specified.
If this is not the case, change the parameters before you change the data record.
Re: "If the document type is not assigned to a task in any version it cannot be used and may not need to be deleted".
But we dont want to keep the unused doc type's :'(

Deleting PO Document types

Dear,
Basic use of Document type is used in SAP MM to assign number range.

Can we have two document types in SAP_SRM5.0?

Hi All,
Can we have two document types in SAP_SRM5.0? The doc type EC is configured for EC-PR and PO , But now we need to rollout buyers intervenes if sc< 5000K, should generate the PO directly for non-catalog.
For instance;
1.     Existing scenario,
a.     SC ->approval u2013>PR then buyer converts into PO manually (Non-Catalog).
b.     SC( with catalog )->approval->PO ( 54XXXX )
2.     Now as per our requirement, SC->approval -> PO ( non-catalog ).
How to cope up these two scenarios in our system.
Please advice?
Regards,
Lalit

Hi Masa,
Itu2019s true we have classic scenario and there is no difference in these two scenario; we simply need to pressure off of low value of SC has to converted into PO directly.
We have set EC doc type ( no range as Internal here SRM and In Backend System External with No Range 54 XXXX ) .
We donu2019t need to create new number range;
1. No Range : 51 XXX
SC->PR-PO ( 51xxxxx) range ( Existing System)
SC ( less thn 1000k ) only PO ( with the same number range 51XXXX) ( proposed )
2. No Range 54 XXXX which we have set for Catalog PO which I donu2019t want to disturb .
Please advice how we can proceed .

Lalit

Can't delete a document in Word 2007

I have Windows 7 and Office 2007. I want to delete a 6 page document which I created.
When I attempt this action, I get the following message:
"This action can't be completed because the file is open in MS Office Word."
I am quite sure the file is not open. I can delete other documents.

Check if any other application is running and is using this doc.
check task manager
check opened sessions /files
Work around.
Modify the document and save it as another name for example file1 save as file2, rename file1 and delete it.

Can't delete a document that is declared a record (because I can't undeclare record)

We use in-place records management with regular document libraries. Users declare/undeclare records all day long.
I came across something strange where a document that was declared a record cannot be deleted. Typically, I can just undeclare the document (through Compliance Details) and then delete the document. When I try to undeclare, I click the Undeclare link (and
then refresh), but the document does not actually undeclare (the item still shows up as a record). I also tried undeclaring/deleting via PowerShell, but I constantly get the error: "...locked read-only"
Thoughts on how to get rid of this document?

can reproduce what you describe, the key point is that:
when you declare a document as record, it is a HTTP post command to the SharePoint document library allitems.aspx page.
after you undeclare the record, you might want to check the status of the document by refreshing the page, it will prompt you message like:
To display the webpage again, the web browser needs to resend the information you've previously submitted. If you were making a purchase, you should click cancel to avoid a duplicate transaction. Otherwise, click Retry to display the webpage again.
So, if you click Retry, another HTTP post command is sent and the document is declared as record again.
The correct way is to navigate to another page and navigate back again, you will see the document undeclared status.

Did you try--
Selecting then the Delete key?
Selecting then drag to trash?

This sounds crazy, but I can't delete a document in Pages. How do I do that? duh.

How do I delete an entire document in Pages? I've tried and it won't go away! I've used every key word/phrase I can think of to get an answer. Thank you.

If you have never saved it just close it and don't save.
If you saved it, go to Finder where you saved it to (probably in your Documents folder), and drag the file to the trash.

How can I delete a document I added to sidebar by mistake?

What I did was: Finder> File> "Add to sidebar"
I see no option to "delete from sidebar"
I even went into "Finder preferences"> Sidebar, and the folder that now exists is not on the list of things to show under "places" where the document is currently showing up on sidebar.
H E L P (Damsel in distress)

Select the item, drag it out of the Sidebar until it poofs away. You may need to hold down the OPTION or COMMAND key while you do that in case it does not work as described.

Can't Delete iWork Documents

How can I delete a condition type or the price in the debit memo

Hi Friends,
please help me
I have a query regarding raising a debit memo in SAP 4.7 (transaction VA01)
I have to charge a company Euro 2112.70 and I don't want to add any VAT on it. The customer is a one-off third party customer code and the material is Sundry Sales. After I enter the price condition ZP00 for Euro 2112.70 the system adds 17.5% VAT on top of this. How could I delete the VAT element or change it to zero?
Raj

So you need to charge a customer without VAT tax.
As there are many ways to do that, including the so no recommended procedure of deleting the tax condition, you firsy have to analyse why the company want to do that.
If its specifically to that customer, you can manage that via TAX determination for that customer. (From customer master).
As I'm not good at TAX conditions, I recomend you to check that on SAP help.
One I was required to do something like that. In last instance you can add in your pricing procedure one new condition in a sequence "bellow" of your MWST condition.
I hope i could help you...
Best regards,
demas

Can't delete a document in printing queue

Any others I submit won't print, but I can delete them from the queue. Just one I can't get rid of so I can print again. Can you help?

What printer model? What operating system? You might try the HP Print Diagnostic Utility, it can correct many of these kinds of issues.
