  The SAP error message C+153, which indicates "Error updating table &," typically occurs when there is an issue with updating a database table in the SAP system. This error can arise due to various reasons, including:
  Causes:
  
  Database Locking Issues: The table may be locked by another transaction, preventing updates.

  Custom Code Issues: If there are custom programs or enhancements, they may contain errors that lead to this issue.

  Consult Logs: Check the application logs (transaction SLG1) for more detailed error messages that can provide additional context about the failure.
