4. Error is prompted.

Screens created by Partner using navigation (Thing Based or Object Based) usually face issue in deletion due to being referred by other UI component.

When a screen is created by selecting navigation scenario in Cloud Studio, a set of UI components are created based on the selected navigation. All the UI components are referenced by one another. For deleting such UI components, you need to delete them from top to bottom level reference approach. This is because all the child level UI components will have a reference in its parent UI component.

For example: OWL will have a reference in WCVIEW which in turn will be referred by Work Center (WCF).

In case, WCF is referred by any PDI anchor then first this PDI anchor or the reference needs to be removed then follow above steps.

Try deleting the screens in this order:

WCF, WCVIEW, OWL, QC / QA, QV, TI / OIF, TT / PTP
