Error description
When approving a task group within a workspace on an authoring server, foreign key errors may be encountered when workspace best practices are not followed. One such case is a user deleting objects from different workspaces or the approved content while content in another workspace has changes referencing this object. For example: -Attribute Dictionary Attributes - do not delete an attribute or attribute value when a product, sku, bundle or kit is modified in a workspace and is referencing the attribute or attribute value. -Catalogs - do not delete a sales catalog when categories or products, skus, bundles or kits are assigned to the catalog in another workspace. When resource objects in a task group of a workspace have been modified to reference an object and that object is removed from the approved content, the subsequent approval of the task group will result in a foreign key violation as the foreign key column no longer has a corresponding parent record. This error will prevent the task group from being approved unless these child records are removed.
Local fix
Follow the workspace best practice and limitations in workspaces
