Symptom
After creating custom sales document types using the Configure Standard Order Type activity, there's the need of deleting these custom entries.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Cause
As long as the custom sales document types are in Draft status, they can be deleted. The Status column shows which sales document types are saved as draft in the workspace.
After confirming, the system saves the selected document types and sets the status to Confirmed. Then, these sales document types cannot be deleted anymore.
Resolution
If these custom sales document type are no longer needed or shouldn't be used, it's possible to block it by assigning "X" to the blocking indicator via the configuration activity "Configure Sales Document Types" (ID: 102495).
