1914914 - Unable To Delete Logistics Task Folder

Symptom

You are unable to delete a Logistics Task Folder as Delete option is Grayed out in the system.

Environment

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to the Warehousing and Logistics Master Data Work center.
  2. Go to the Logistics Task Folder view.
  3. In the Show field, select All Folders By Selection from the drop-down.
  4. Search for the relevant Logistics Task Folder ID using Find option.
  5. Select the Task Folder ID with certain Task Type say Production Task.
  6. Here you see that option Delete is not Enabled.

Cause

Since the Logistics Task Folder ID has assigned tasks you are unable to delete it.

 In the normal business scenario, Logistics Task Folders are not created too often, and are not deleted once they are in use.

Only their assignment criteria is changed and person responsible gets changed with time.

Resolution

Only the task folders which have the Task Folder Type as Standard will have the Delete button enabled provided there are no tasks assignments in the folder.This is an Expected System Behavior.

Note:Please note the below points related to Logistics Task Folder :

1. Default Logistics Task Folders can never be deleted.

2. A Non-Default Logistics Task Folder can be deleted only if it does not have any assigned tasks.

Note : There should be no assigned tasks, not just open tasks
