The Entity Reference Delete module allows reference fields to enforce referential integrity by deleting related entities. References can be enforced in both directions:
- A parent entity being deleted can cause child entities to be deleted. For example, deleting a node could cause the taxonomy terms referenced in a 'tags' field to be deleted.
- A child entity being deleted could cause parent entities to be deleted. For example, deleting a store entity could cause product entities which reference that store to be deleted.
Both config fields and code field can be configured to delete related entities.

- https://www.drupal.org/project/err_delete : Provides a UI for recursively deleting entities.
Limitations
The module only supports the entity_reference field type in core, and does not work with dynamic_entity_reference or entity_reference_revisions field types from contrib. Support for these could be added when this core issue is fixed.
