well probably this is some authorization on OS level thingie.

you dont want SAP user to be able to delete files on your application server as well i guess.

Check whether the File Exists in QA Server/Check for the Permission(Authorizations) on the server.

Check it through Tcode: AL11

Hi,

Can you check if yu are trying to delet the dataset which is open.

before using delete dataset, use "close dataset statement" and try it.

Hi,

Check th user authorizations in QAS.

You may not have the same in DEV.

Hi,

What is the SY-SUBRC value after the DELETE Dataset Statement? May be you do not have authorization to delete file from application server in Q system.

This is some authorization on OS level.
