What causes this issue?

You have tried to delete one or more organizational criteria. Some of
them are still active in the following clients in your system:
&V1&
&V2&
&V3&
&V4&
The organizational criteria may still be being used in user roles or
authorizations in these clients.

System Response

Active organizational criteria cannot be deleted.

How to fix this error?

Log on to these clients. Start the IMG (transaction SPRO) and go to the
IMG activity <LS>SAP Web Application Server --> System Administration
--> Users and Authorizations --> Row Authorizations --> Activate
Organizational Criteria</>. Reset the <LS>Active</> flag for these
organizational criteria and save your change.
When you have done this in all the clients above, delete the
organizational criteria again.

Procedure for System Administrators

Ensure that none of the organizational criteria to be deleted is still
used in authorizations.
