This error indicates that a user has locked the summarization data, preventing other users or processes from accessing or modifying it.
Cause:
- User Lock: The summarization data is currently locked by a specific user (indicated by &1 in the error message). This can happen if a user is currently processing or has not properly released the lock after completing their task.
- Long-Running Processes: If a user is running a long-running report or data processing job, it may hold the lock for an extended period.
- System Errors: Occasionally, system errors or crashes can leave locks in place that are not released properly.

(to view and manage locks) orSM21
(to check system logs).- Release the Lock: If the user is no longer active or if the process has been completed, you can manually release the lock. In
SM12
, you can select the lock entry and delete it.- Communicate with the User: If the user is still active, communicate with them to understand if they can complete their task and release the lock.
- Check for Background Jobs: If the lock is due to a background job, you may need to wait for it to complete or check if it can be terminated safely.
- System Administration: If the issue persists, it may require intervention from a system administrator to investigate further or to check for any underlying issues causing the locks.
