This typically occurs in the context of SAP CRM (Customer Relationship Management) when multiple users or processes attempt to access or modify the same project demand simultaneously.
  Cause:
  
  Concurrent Access: The most common cause is that another user or process is currently editing or has locked the project demand you are trying to access.

  Solution:
  
  Check Lock Entries: Use transaction code SM12 to check for lock entries. You can look for locks related to the specific project demand and identify the user or process that holds the lock.
  Wait and Retry: If another user is working on the project demand, you may need to wait until they finish and release the lock.
  Release Locks: If you find that a lock is held by a session that is no longer active, you can manually delete the lock entry in SM12 (ensure you have the necessary authorizations to do this).
  Review User Sessions: Check if there are any orphaned sessions that might be holding locks. You can use transaction SM04 to see active user sessions.
