How to delete or change a storage type in WM Cloud

Dear all,

How can I delete or change a storage type in WM Cloud.

I have created a storage type where the storage type template is set to "General storage"

This setting is not correct and will" also not be used in future purposes so I wanted to delete the storage type but this is not possible.
The functionality to delete in [More][Edit][Delete] is grayed out and not available.

If I go to [Details] to change the "General storage" into "Standard storage" the storage type template field can not be changed. Also in this view I cannot go for [More][Edit][Delete].

There are no materials, no bins and no other documents ongoing over this storage type .

What can I do?

I don't want it to to have it in production as Polluted data "Do Not Use!

Greetings,

Ray

Dear Ray,

Unfortunately, in SAP S/4HANA Cloud Essentials generally for many customizing options it's not (yet) possible to delete any entries. Therefore, I think you are only left with 2 options:

1) Prepare and file a WSR document with your SAP Customer contact to officially request SAP to remove this customizing setting for you with argumentation why this needs to be done. They sometimes approve and will delete the record in the back-end system depending on the use-case/reason.

2) Rename as **Do not use

Hopefully they will allow us somewhere in the nearby future to delete more customizing records. Because we also notice at Cloud customers the **Do not use** descriptions are popping up on several objects.

Kind regards,

Jens

Thanks Jens Koyen and Marco Valencia for your answers.

It's a pity that cloud customizing automate some dependencies which can not be turn around in case it is obsolete.

Lets hope for future update developments were there are possibilities' to undo these actions to prevent Polluted data in production system.
