Cause

Resolution

To resolve this, you will need to create a new patch version and then delete the actual patch solution. With a new patch version, this will be having status "In Development" and then you can delete the patch solution properly. Please follow these steps:

  1. Go to SAP Cloud Applications Studio.
  2. Open Solution.
  3. Click on Implementation Manager.
  4. Click on Create Patch.
  5. After new Patch Solution Version creation, right click on Solution.
  6. Click on Delete.

The solution will be deleted successfully. This is the design of the system that a patch solution cannot be deleted directly from the status POS (Post Processing Phase).
