  The SAP error message "53145 Group &1 locked" typically indicates that a specific group (such as a user group, authorization group, or similar entity) is currently locked and cannot be accessed or modified. This can occur in various contexts within SAP, such as when trying to assign users to a group or when attempting to modify group settings.
  Cause:
  
  Manual Locking: The group may have been manually locked by an administrator or user with the necessary permissions.
  System Lock: The system may have automatically locked the group due to a previous error or inconsistency.
  Concurrent Access: Another user or process may be currently accessing or modifying the group, leading to a temporary lock.

  Solution:
  
  Check Lock Status: Use transaction code SM12 to check for any locks on the group. You can search for the group name to see if it is locked and by whom.
  Unlock the Group: If you have the necessary permissions, you can unlock the group from the SM12 transaction. Be cautious when doing this, as it may affect other users or processes.

  Wait and Retry: If the lock is due to concurrent access, you may need to wait for the other user or process to finish before trying again.
  Review Authorizations: Ensure that your user account has the appropriate authorizations to access and modify the group.
