Cause

Checked whether the status map is already associated to a talent pool group and if so, please checked whether there's a candidate application in it. If there's, then even if we archived the talent pool group, the same error message will persist which is an expected behavior.

Resolution

Currently, this is an expected behavior and by system design. We cannot delete a status map entity, if it's associated to a talent group with candidate application to it.
