**To resolve a failed resource disassociation**

In the **Delete product** window, review the Associations table **Status** column. Identify the failed resource disassociation exception and the suggested resolutions:


****  

| Status exception type | Cause | Resolution | 
| --- | --- | --- | 
| Product prod-\$1\$1\$1\$1 | AWS Service Catalog could not delete the product because the product still has associated TagOptions, budgets, at least one ProvisioningArtifact with associated actions, the product is still assigned to a Portfolio, the product has users, or the product has constraints.  | Attempt to delete the product again. | 
| User: username is not authorized to perform: | The user attempting to delete the product does not have the necessary permissions to disassociate the product's resources.  | AWS Service Catalog recommends contacting your account administrator for more information about disassociating product resources you do not currently have permissions to disassociate.  |
