  • What causes this issue?

    The system could not work through the inheritance relationship
    synchronously in the current process because the necessary locks could
    not be set for one of the specifications, which are dependent on the
    relationship.

    System Response

    An inheritance background job is scheduled in order to update the
    inheritance relationship.

    Procedure for System Administrators

    It is possible that subsequent actions that depend on inheritance
    relationship processing are not carried out correctly and should
    therefore be repeated after executing the inheritance background job.
    For this purpose, you can search for signs of additional problems in the
    error log entries.
