Cannot delete InfoObjects

Hello,
I defined a Characteristic "Org Unit" which has 3 Characteristics namely "Company", "Area" and "Department" as navigational attributes. These 3 attributes in turn I have created using "Org Unit" as a reference.
Now I want to delete all the 4 Characteristics but cannot. When I try to delete "Org Unit", I get an error saying that it references "Company", "Area" and "Department" respectively. And when I try to delete each of these Characteristics I get an error saying it is referenced by "Org Unit".
When I attemp to open the other 3 Characteristics. I get the following error....
<b>Characteristic "Company" is blocked by conversion</b>
How do I come out of this deadlock situation? Pls help.
Thanks,
SD

hi Sebastian,
first.. settle the converison lock problem,
Note 325296 - Conversion lock: Characteristics cannot be edited
First activate the master data if you have deleted attributes or changed the time dependency of an attribute (Administrator Workbench --> Tools --> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute change). Activate the characteristic only afterwards.
after that change company, area and department 'reference' to no reference
Note 568051 - Changing the referencing of characteristics
then remove them from attributes of Org Unit, and delete them.
finally delete Org Unit.
hope this work for you.

  • Cannot delete communication structure

    Hi Gurus!
    I am having problems deleting the communication structures. I installed some Business Contents using the In Dataflow before and afterwards. Consequently, some installed objects are irrelevant to what I need. I am doing some clean-up but I cannot delete the communication structure. It is really odd since I’ve deleted the update rule connected to it, there are no existing transfer structures already still same errors encountered. Then when I try to delete it, it would say that InfoObject ex. 0GN_CAT_SSY of communication structure still being used, but whenever I change the communication structure it is highlighted and cannot be deleted.
    InfoObject 0GN_CAT_SSY of communication structure still being used
        Message no. RSAR741
    Diagnosis
        The deletion of the communication structure for InfoSource
        0PROD_CATEG_TEXT is not possible. InfoObject 0GN_CAT_SSY of the
        communication structure is still being used. This use must be undone
        first.
        Concretely the communication structure of an InfoSource can only be
        deleted if there are no update rules for InfoCubes and no transfer
        structures for source systems for this InfoSource.

           InfoSource 0PROD_CATEG_TEXT.
       o   Check the use of your InfoSource 0PROD_CATEG_TEXT in update rules
           for InfoCubes. Delete all existing update rules for your InfoSource
           0PROD_CATEG_TEXT.
       Afterwards, you can delete your communication structure for InfoSource
       0PROD_CATEG_TEXT.
    Points will be granted whoever can help me. Thank you.

    Hi
    Check , whether your infosource is already assigned to datasource!  At the Infosource tree, Open the Infosource, inside that, check you have any datasource assignment.(It will somthing like the name of the R/3 system).
    Right click on the Infosource, and select the option "Delete the source sytem assignment"
    Then try to delete the communication structure.
    It should work!!
    Thanks

  • Deleting infoobjects from Dimension in Cube

    Hi All,
    I am trying to delete infoobjects from a dimension in a cube. My constraint is that I cannot delete all the data in the cube. This dimension is a new dimension which I had created 1 month ago. So, I deleted all the requests which I had loaded after creating this new dimension, so that this Dimension table gets emptied. I have also adjusted the dimension from RSRV. The dimension table is now empty. Still, I am not able to delete the infoobjects from this dimension or delete the dimension altogether.
    Any pointers to this will be highly appreciated.
    regards,
    Saikat

    Hi,
    I had thought about remodelling. I can do it in Dev and make the changes, and transport them to Q. The constraint is that in Q there are 2.8 million records and I don't want to delete the data in Q. In case the transport fails, I cannot use remodelling in Q (to do this we will have to open up the system; not recommended).
    I can selectively delete only those requests which contained data in the new dimension. But I think the same issue will occur as in Dev currently (even if the dimension table is empty, deleting a dimension is not allowed).
    regards,
    Saikat

  • Cannot delete file from external hard drive (error code 36) in Finder, but Terminal is ok

    I have a relatively new Macbook Pro Retina 15" and have a Western Digital 1 TB Passport.  I've been using the passport for about a year now without any problems on older Macbooks in my house.  I used to be able to read and write to this drive no problem.  I am using the Paragon NTFS for Mac software in order to read and write to the NTFS drive.  When I navigate through the drive in Finder, if I try to create a new folder, I do not have a problem.  If I try to delete that folder I just created, I get this error:
    The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “untitled folder” can’t be read or written.
    (Error code -36)
    The folder has nothing in it whatsoever.  I just created it.  But if I go to Terminal and I run
    rm -rf "untitled folder"
    This works fine.  Why is Terminal acting different than Finder?  This does not happen on my other Macbooks.  Thanks in advance.

    Thanx for such qucik reply!!! The pages were great, it had an answer for my problem, but unfortunately it also involved me dealing with it only on the MacIntosh HD itself, not on mounted external drive I suppose... So it didn't work they say that there is an icon in the left corner indicating locked folder - I don't see any icon on it. It says you can untick the box to unlock the folder - there is no tick to be unticked. Finally, they say that if I don't have permition or rights I cannot delete it. But how do i change permittion which already says that i can read and write in it? So everything appears to be normal only I cannot delete it. there is not even any warnig telling me I don't have enough rights, it just requires the password and after me typing it in it makes the sound of scraping paper but does nothing more. I aslo had some problems with emptying Trash after being seemingly succesful with one file and had got so far to have them appear in the Trash (no clue how this one actully got there though..) I followd the advice and emptied the Trash with Terminal. The Folder is still there but it shows 0 Kb... So far so good BUT: It is still on the external drive, so I obviously only managed to copy it into the Trash!!! Phew, innit a bit too tight to poor owners, this macbook?? I want my rights back!

  • Cannot delete file from disk after emailling that file like attachment

    After i send some file from disk in Mail like attachment i cannot delete that file from disk unless i quit Mail. Like Mail is still using a file. Of course, that mail is in Sent mail, not in outbox.

    This deeper than that. I created another account on the same iMac and it works in Harmony with my other devices and Documents in the cloud. I can only imagine the icloud account is somehow corrupted (I am on my macbook not iMac at the moment). There have been no updates to the Calendar, Contacts or Documents since early January on that account. I have spent 1hr on the phone with support and they were baffled as well. Only thing I can gove as insight to the problem is this, I was on the Mac Mini which was backed up on Time Machine. about 4 or 5 months ago I had to completley restore the Mac Mini becasue of the never ending circle on the load screen. The Backup failed to work it kept loading the issue and 4 or 5 times the circle of death kept coming up I would subsequently wipe the Mini and go further back in the back up until I go a copy that worked.  I then loaded the Time Mache back up into my NEW iMac and wnet from there. It took about a month for this problem I am detailing above to start happening. It maybe a corrupt file loaded from the backup into the new iMac causing this problem. Best answer I can think of on my own???

  • I moved itunes file to external hard drive and want to move the file on my pc to recycle bin. When I move i get an error message that it cannot delete ituneshelper.dll access is denied. Can I move that file to the recycle bin?

    I am trying to free up space on my pc and moving itunes files to external hard drive. I have followed instructions and believe I have file copied to new drive, but I am having trouble moving file to recycle bin as the instructions say. I am getting the following error message: cannot delete ituneshelper.dll:access denied, make sure disk is not full or write protected and file not in use. I know the file is not in use when trying to move. Any help would be most appreciated. I am on Windows XP.

    Yes. And you should not have moved that folder. Put it back. To move your iTunes library move the folder from User's Music.

  • Cannot delete old voice memos from iPhone 4S, ios 6.0.1

    So I noticed today while doing some housecleaning in iTunes and on my iPhone that I had three voice memos in my iphone that didnt get deleted (see picture below).
    So naturally I go and attempt to delete those (because they are just taking up space (I know it's not much, but why have them if I am not using them?). Weird things is, I cannot delete these at all. I highlight all three and hit the delete key, no good. I right click and these are my only options:
    The thing is, I go into my voice memos options in the main iTunes library, nothing is there.
    As well, there is nothing in my iPhone's voice memo library. Also, the voice memo folder in my iTunes folder is empty.
    Any suggestions to try and remove these off the device? I've tried everything I can think of to try and get rid of them.
    Thanks.

    I cannot see your screen shots for some reason, but here's a suggestion:
    Open iTunes on your computer, look at your playlists there.  Go to your "Voice Memos" playlist, delete all its contents, and then sync your iPhone to iTunes.

  • I have orphaned voice memos on my iPhone5 and cannot delete. Listed in iTunes but not on my iPhone's Voice Memo app.

    When I upgraded from my iPhone 4 to iPhone 5, a bunch of voice memos were orphaned.
    What this means is that when I connect my iPhone to iTunes, I see the voice memos.
    They are listed in iTunes under my iPhone directories  "Voice Memo" and in "Music".
    But I cannot delete these.
    When I go to my iPhone, the Voice memo app has changed (ok) and you can see there
    are no voice memos. It appears that they are orphaned from the voice memo app.
    So the voice memos are in my phone somewhere.
    How can I delete them or export them or something with them?
    I can't play them except on iTunes. They don't show up in Music in my iPhone.
    Thanks for your Help

  • When I access my google e-mail account on the I-pad my inbox has at least 6 e-mails with no sender and no subject (absent via I-phone, Mac or PC) I cannot delete them as they cannot be selected- how do I stop them and clear the ones there now?

    When I access my google e-mail account on the I-pad my inbox has at least 6 e-mails with no sender and no subject (absent via I-phone, Mac or PC) I cannot delete them as they cannot be selected- how do I stop them and clear the ones there now?

    Try turning the account off and on : Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars , then tap the account on the right, slide Mail to 'off', exit settings and go back into the Mail app, and then go back to Settings and slide Mail back to 'on'
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Mail app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Mail app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Mail app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    Also do a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Re: Satellite L450D Cannot delete file from desktop

    The file when I right click on proprties reads the file is 0 bytes size.
    It cannot be deleted in safe mode or moved or renamed or anything!
    Any ideas??

    Hi Guys, thanks for your replies, however, there is nothing in startup or task manager to delete!
    I have tried downloading unlocker, but it doesnt do anything when I click on it!! Maybe it doesnt work with Windows 7.
    I suppose I can leave it alone as its not doing anything! its not worth a reformat just do get rid of an icon.
    Ho Hum.
