ACO401 - Details

• The SAP error message ACO401 indicates that there is a conflict when trying to change substitutes for a specific object (denoted by '&1') because another user has already made changes to those substitutes. This typically occurs in scenarios where multiple users are trying to edit the same data simultaneously, leading to a lock situation.
  
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user has already modified the substitutes for the specified object, and the system has locked that data to prevent inconsistencies.
  Session Conflicts: If a user has multiple sessions open and is trying to change the same data in different sessions, it can lead to this error.
  Data Locking Mechanism: SAP uses a locking mechanism to ensure data integrity. When one user is editing data, it locks that data for other users until the first user saves or cancels their changes.
  
  
  Solution:
  
  Refresh the Data: If you encounter this error, try refreshing the screen or reloading the data. This
