  The SAP error message "4776 Locked: &1" typically indicates that a particular object (like a user account, a session, or a resource) is locked and cannot be accessed or modified until it is unlocked. The "&1" in the message usually represents the specific object that is locked.
  Causes:
  
  User Lock: A user account may be locked due to multiple failed login attempts or administrative actions.
  Session Lock: A session may be locked if a transaction is still in progress or if it was not properly closed.
  Resource Lock: Certain resources (like database entries or application objects) may be locked due to ongoing processes or transactions.
  
  Solutions:
  
  
  Unlock User Account:
  
  If the error pertains to a user account, an administrator can unlock the account using transaction code SU01:
  
  Go to SU01.
  Enter the user ID and click on the "Display" button.
  If the account is locked, you will see a lock icon. Click on the "Unlock" button to unlock the account.
  
  
  
  
  
  End Session:

  Release Resource Lock:
