• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message BORGR100 - Shipment &1 is currently being edited (user &2) ?

  The SAP error message BORGR100 indicates that a shipment (identified by the number &1) is currently being edited by another user (identified by user &2). This is a common issue in SAP systems when multiple users attempt to access or modify the same object simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: Another user has opened the shipment for editing, which locks the record to prevent data inconsistencies.
  Session Timeout: A user may have left the shipment open in a session that has not been properly closed, causing it to remain locked.
  System Configuration: The system may be configured to lock records for editing to ensure data integrity.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: The simplest solution is to wait until the other user has finished editing the shipment. You can check back later to see if the lock has been released.
  Contact the User: If you know who the user is (user &2), you can reach out to them to ask if they can finish their work or log out of the session.
  Check for Open Sessions: If you have access, you can check the system for open sessions or locks. This can often be done using transaction codes like SM12 (to view and delete locks) or SM21 (to check system logs).
  Force Release the Lock: If the user is no longer active and you have the necessary permissions, you can manually release the lock using transaction SM12. However, this should be done with caution, as it may lead to data inconsistencies if the other user is still working on the shipment.
  System Administrator: If you are unable to resolve the issue, contact your SAP system administrator for assistance. They can help identify the cause of the lock and take appropriate action.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: Familiarize yourself with transaction codes like SM12 (to view and manage locks), SM21 (to view system logs), and SU01 (to manage user accounts).
  User Training: Ensure that users are trained on proper session management to avoid leaving transactions open unnecessarily.
  System Configuration: Review the system's locking mechanisms and configurations to ensure they align with business processes and user needs.
  
  By following these steps, you should be able to address the BORGR100 error effectively.
