• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CNV_CMIS_A_20_FUNC024 - Local worklist lock failed on destination & ?

  The SAP error message CNV_CMIS_A_20_FUNC024 with the description "Local worklist lock failed on destination &" typically occurs in the context of data migration or conversion processes, particularly when using the SAP Conversion Management Information System (CMIS). This error indicates that there is a problem with acquiring a lock on the local worklist for the specified destination.
  Causes:
  
  Concurrent Access: The most common cause of this error is that another process or user is currently accessing the same worklist, leading to a lock contention.
  Database Lock: There may be a database lock on the worklist table, preventing the current process from acquiring the necessary lock.
  System Configuration: Misconfiguration in the system settings related to the worklist or the migration process can also lead to this error.
  Long-running Transactions: If a previous transaction is taking too long to complete, it may hold the lock longer than expected.
  
  Solutions:
  
  Check for Active Sessions: Use transaction codes like SM12 to check for active locks in the system. If you find any locks related to the worklist, you may need to wait for them to be released or, if appropriate, release them manually.
  Retry the Operation: Sometimes, simply retrying the operation after a short wait can resolve the issue if it was caused by a temporary lock.
  Review Background Jobs: Check if there are any background jobs that might be holding locks on the worklist. You can use transaction SM37 to monitor background jobs.
  System Configuration Review: Ensure that the system configuration for the migration process is correct. Review any relevant settings in the CMIS configuration.
  Database Performance: If the database is under heavy load, consider optimizing performance or scheduling the migration during off-peak hours.
  Consult SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that might address this specific error or provide additional troubleshooting steps.
