Diagnosis
You want to delete a code from a code group. However, this code hasalready been used. An error could then occur in the affectedapplication.

System Response
If you have set the "inactive" indicator for logical deletion inCustomizing for the catalog type, the entry can be deleted despite thewarning. You can then still find short texts for logically deletedcodes in other applications.
If in Customizing for the catalog type you have not set the "inactive"indicator for physical deletion, the entry cannot be deleted, so thatdata consistency is guaranteed in other applications.

Procedure
If required (if necessary as a temporary measure), change the settingsin Customizing for the catalog type.
Note: If a catalog entry is logically deleted, no catalog entry can beentered later with the same key.
