• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CRM_MKTTG600 - Target group locked by user & ?

  The SAP error message "CRM_MKTTG600 Target group locked by user &" typically indicates that a target group in the SAP Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system is currently locked by another user. This can happen when a user is editing or processing the target group, preventing other users from making changes or accessing it until the lock is released.
  Cause:
  
  User Lock: Another user is currently editing the target group, which creates a lock on it.
  Session Timeout: A user may have left a session open, causing the target group to remain locked.
  System Error: Occasionally, a system error or crash may leave a target group in a locked state.
  
  Solution:
  
  Wait and Retry: If the lock is temporary, waiting for the other user to finish their work may resolve the issue.
  Identify the Locking User: You can use transaction code SM12 to check for locks in the system. This will show you which user is currently locking the target group.
  
  Go to transaction SM12.
  Enter the relevant table name (if known) or leave it blank to see all locks.
  Look for the user who has locked the target group.
  
  
  Contact the Locking User: If you identify the user, you can reach out to them to see if they can release the lock.
  Release the Lock: If the locking user is unavailable and you have the necessary authorizations, you can manually delete the lock using transaction SM12. Be cautious with this approach, as it may lead to data inconsistency if the other user is still working on it.
  Check for Background Jobs: Sometimes, background jobs may also lock target groups. You can check transaction SM37 to see if any jobs are running that might be causing the lock.
  
  Related Information:
  
  User Authorizations: Ensure that you have the necessary authorizations to view and manage locks in the system.
